Synopsis

At the family home in Louisiana, FBI Special Agent Aloysius Pendergast is laying to rest his wife's possessions - a job he's been putting off since her tragic death twelve years ago. But whilst examining her property, he makes a startling discovery - one that leads him to believe Helen's death was not accidental...

With the help of his trusted friend Lieutenant Vincent D'Agosta, Pendergast embarks on a quest to uncover the mystery of his wife's final days. It's a journey that takes him deep into the dark heart of her past, to a hidden obsession and top-secret information that some people would do anything to protect. But as the hunt for Helen's murderer ventures into the Bayou, Pendergast find himself faced with a killer question: just who was the woman he married?

About this title

Review:

"This is no dream; it's the authors' best book in years. Not to be missed by either newcomers or die-hard fans." "Library Journal (starred review)""

"They have grown steadily darker and more elegantly written...together they reach an entirely different level, achieving a stylistic grace and thematic resonance neither has so far matched alone. This may be the best of the Pendergast novels." "Booklist (starred review)""

"Up the emotional ante considerably...brilliant and eccentric...one of the best in the series. Once again, the bestselling authors show they have few peers at creating taut scenes of suspense." "Publishers Weekly (starred review)""

Book Description:
