Description

Whisper Ridge, a multimillion-dollar architectural project that was to host a unique program for paroled murderers, was the passion of Alexandra Sanabria, the daughter of a deceased Mafia don. But the program never got off the ground. The abandoned home now remains as a strange monument to dangerous secrets, kept off the market with taxes paid by a legal trust that Sanabria established just before she and her husband left town. While the couple's abrupt exit was unique, it was also not regarded as criminal--until the bones of Alexandra's husband were found more than a decade later. Private Investigator Lincoln Perry isn't thrilled about the situation--or his client. Parker Harrison served fifteen years for murder, but he claims Alexandra's intervention saved his life, and now he wants to find her. It is a task that will challenge both Perry's abilities as a detective and his commitment to that calling. Once again Michael Koryta has crafted an intricate, fast-paced thriller, ratcheting up the tension as he explores just how dangerous the offer of a second chance can be.
