Thriller Serial Killer
A stunning literary thriller set in rural Vermont from the
much praised author of Nightswimmer and Clara's Heart Once a major reporter for a national newspaper, Catherine
Winslow has retreated to the Upper Valley of Vermont to
write a household hints column. While out walking during an
early spring thaw, Catherine discovers the body of a woman
leaning against an apple tree near her house. From the
corpse’s pink parka, Winslow recognizes her as the latest
victim of a serial killer, a woman reported missing weeks
before during a blizzard. When her neighbor, a forensic psychiatrist, is pulled into
the investigation, Catherine begins to discover some
unexpected connections to the serial murders. One is that
the murders might be based on a rare unfinished Wilkie
Collins novel that is missing from her personal library. The
other is her much younger lover from her failed affair has
unexpectedly resurfaced and is trying to maneuver his way
back into her affections. Elegant, haunting and profoundly gripping, Cloudland is an
ingenious psychological trap baited with murder, deception
and the intricacies of desire.
