But that is the nature of revenge. It escalates. It
cannot be controlled. One hurt invites another, on and on
until the original injury is all but forgotten in the chaos
of what follows...
John Connolly's originality and talent for storytelling have
quickly made him one of today's preeminent thriller writers.
Now, in The Unquiet, private detective Charlie Parker
returns to untangle a horrifying story of betrayal, unclean
desires, and murder -- a story of never-ending evil whose
conclusion is not yet written.
Daniel Clay, a once-respected psychiatrist, has gone
missing. His daughter insists that he killed himself after
allegations surfaced that he had betrayed his patients to
foul and evil men -- but when a killer obsessed with
uncovering the truth behind his own daughter's disappearance
comes seeking revenge, long-forgotten secrets begin to
emerge. Hired by Dr. Clay's daughter to protect her from the
predator on the loose, tortured and ingenious private
detective Charlie Parker finds himself trapped between those
who want the truth to be revealed and those who will go to
any length to keep it hidden.
