Recovering from a gunshot wound, Cinq-Mars receives word of a triple gangland homicide. The accused is in custody and hospitalized, yet the stakes intensify when his guard is murdered. The prisoner is the only suspect – a man Cinq-Mars arrested for murder, not once, but twice, forty years ago, who was handcuffed to his hospital bed for the latest fatality. Back then, Cinq-Mars helped the delinquent slip the rap both times. Will he dare to do so once more? Simple case, penetrating a gang’s hierarchy becomes vital to disentangle truth from lies, deceit from loyalty. Questioning himself, Cinq-Mars is caught racing against criminals – and cops who seek their own warring justice – while knocking on death’s door himself. With its imaginative premise and intricate structure, Bright Shining as the Sun melds vivid and artful storytelling in an emotionally affecting tale of inflamed familial dysfunction and profound brotherly love.
