Read by Debra Monk

A shocking and provocative new thriller from the author the national bestseller The Magician's Tale, again featuring color-blind photographer Kay Farrow as she probes a mysterious death in San Francisco's Mission District.

When distinguished photojournalists Maddy Yamada is struck by a motorcyclist at two in the morning in a seedy area far from her Marina apartment, Kay Farrow's grief is tempered by suspicion.  What could have drawn the reclusive Maddy so far from home at such an hour?  Kay believes Maddy's work in progress - blurry, abstract images uncharacteristic of a woman famous for her unsparing clarity of vision - holds elusive clues, clues Kay is determined to decipher.

Kay doggedly pursues a winding path to justice, negotiating a labyrinth of debauchery and dark desires, topping anything she encountered in the course of The Magician's Tale.
