His specialty: family murders. When his own father - poor, alcoholic, and a source of unresolved guilt and shame to his successful son - is brutally slain in his rundown Maryland home, Tom returns to make his own investigation. Soon there are two more victims: the father and son of Tom's college girlfriend are found murdered on their exclusive estate. Tom sees almost immediately what the police can't: the murders are linked. And it is this link that will carry Tom twenty years into his past to come face to face with the emotional traumas he has run from - his rivalry with his brother whose help he now needs, the calculated cynicism of his own career, and the impossible love of a boy from the wrong side of the tracks for a rich and privileged woman. Dangerous passions are reignited, and as Tom replays his doomed romance he himself becomes a suspect in murder. In this masterly story of murder and money, love and family, Mewshaw brilliantly combines the authenticity and detail of non-fiction with the inventive power and range of the novel, and portrays a tidewater region - from the Washington D.C., area slums to the posh shores of Chesapeake Bay - as immediate and vital as Robert B. Parker's Boston or Tony Hillerman's Arizona. inventory #15330. Seller Inventory # z15330
