CHARLIE DONLEA'S
CHILLING NEW SUSPENSE THRILLER
is the story of TWO WOMEN, separated by FORTY YEARS, yet both inextricably linked by a series of HORRIFIC MURDERS that took place in 1979.
“In Donlea's skillful hands, this story of obsession, murder, and the search for truth is both a compassionate character study and a compelling thriller.”
—Kirkus Reviews
“Donlea smoothly mixes red herrings and genuine clues...readers who relish a good puzzle will be rewarded.”
“Part 1970s serial-killer thriller and part contemporary Chicago crime novel, this deceptively quick read has something for everyone.”
—Booklist
