Summary
Summary
Edgar Award-winning author Thomas H. Cook spins a riveting tale about one man's struggle to cope with staggering loss. Until his son was kidnapped and murdered, George Gates was a globe-trotting travel writer. Now he writes boring articles by day and broods at night. But when a retiring cold-case detective piques his interest with details of a missing writer, he feels compelled to discover her fate.Editorial Reviews
Editorial Reviews
“Every Thomas H. Cook novel is a subtle mind game, but The Fate of Katherine Carr is positively haunting.”
—New York Times Book Review
“Elegant…an intriguing cold-case mystery.”
—Guardian (London)
“Disturbing, psychologically complex…At each level, the novel ponders questions of good and evil, of guilt and retribution, and the power of storytelling itself.”
—Associated Press
“The beauty and lyricism of this novel read like poetry set down in a cruel hell…Don’t miss a story that breaks the mold. Grade A.”
—Cleveland Plain Dealer
“Eerily poignant…Adept at merging past and present plot lines, Cook eloquently examines the often cathartic act of storytelling.”
—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
“Rich and fascinating.”
—Booklist
“Cook skillfully interweaves mundane, often tragic events with the unseen, even darkly fanciful side of reality.”
—Library Journal
