Devastated by the discovery that his wife, Helen, was murdered, Special Agent Pendergast must have retribution. But revenge is not simple. As he stalks his wife's betrayers—a chase that takes him
from the wild moors of Scotland to the bustling streets of New York City and the darkest bayous of Louisiana—he is also forced to dig further into Helen's past. And he is stunned to learn that
Helen may have been a collaborator in her own murder.
Peeling back the layers of deception, Pendergast realizes that the conspiracy is deeper, goes back generations, and is more monstrous than he could have ever imagined—and everything he's believed,
everything he's trusted, everything he's understood ... may be a horrific lie.
Editorial Reviews
Editorial Reviews
“An exceptionally strong number of a bestseller series.” —Barnes & Noble, editorial review
“Auberjonois’s flawless delivery includes a believable cast of characters with distinctive
voices who draw listeners into the complex story in which nothing is as
it seems. From rich descriptions of hot pursuits through bustling New
York City streets to suspense in dark Louisiana bayous, Auberjonois’s
cadence matches the rising tension that leads to a cliff-hanger ending.” —AudioFile
“The characters are finely honed and believable, and the writing style is
consistent with the authors’ large body of work. These two writers are
professionals who know how to put together a thriller that is full of
suspense and surprises around every twist and turn.” —Bookreporter.com
“This is the second in a trilogy about Helen’s reputed death; the first
book made all the bestsellers lists and won a skyload of stars.
Thriller readers everywhere will want.” —Library Journal
