Synopsis

FBI Special Agent Aloysius Pendergast is visiting the old family home in Louisiana. Surrounded by ghosts of the past, he can't help but think of Helen-his wife who tragically died twelve years ago. But while examining her possessions, 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 secrets 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)""
