Acclaimed New York Times bestselling author Dennis Lehane
delivers an explosive tale of integrity and
vengeance—heralding the long-awaited return of private
investigators Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennaro Amanda
McCready was four years old when she vanished from a Boston
neighborhood twelve years ago. Desperate pleas for help from
the child's aunt led investigators Kenzie and Gennaro to
take on the case. The pair risked everything to find the
young girl—only to orchestrate her return to a neglectful
mother and a broken home. Now Amanda is sixteen—and gone
again. A stellar student, brilliant but aloof, she seemed
destined to escape her upbringing. Yet Amanda's aunt is once
more knocking on Patrick Kenzie's door, fearing the worst
for the little girl who has blossomed into a striking,
clever young woman—a woman who hasn't been seen in weeks.
Haunted by their consciences, Kenzie and Gennaro revisit the
case that troubled them the most. Their search leads them
into a world of identity thieves, methamphetamine dealers, a
mentally unstable crime boss and his equally demented wife,
a priceless, thousand-year-old cross, and a happily
homicidal Russian gangster. It's a world in which motives
and allegiances constantly shift and mistakes are fatal. In
their desperate fight to confront the past and find Amanda
McCready, Kenzie and Gennaro will be forced to question if
it's possible to do the wrong thing and still be right or to
do the right thing and still be wrong. As they face an evil
that goes beyond broken families and broken dreams, they
discover that the sins of yesterday don't always stay buried
and the crimes of today could end their lives.
