Suspense
It has been two decades since Detective Francis X. Loughlin
solved his first big case, the brutal murder of a woman
doctor. The young man convicted of the killing, Julian
Vega, is back on the streets now, released on a
technicality after years of appeals.Not long after his
release, another murder takes place, one so similar to that
long-ago case that Julian is the first suspect in Detective
Loughlin+s sights. However, the DNA evidence that is now a routine part of
policework points in an impossible direction. If the
evidence is correct, Loughlin has to rethink decades of
certainty-and Julian may be the only person alive who can
help him make it through this case. With his laser-sharp vision for motives and secrets of
human nature, Peter Blauner has crafted a crime story of
the highest order, in which the ending is an unguessable
shock and the characters are unforgettably real. Blauner is
at the top of his form in this chilling tour de force, a
novel that will keep readers guessing until the very last
page.
