Ray Jackson's wife, Leigh, has disappeared, and he can't
get the images of all the homes he lived in as a child out
of his head. When Kat, an old friend of Leigh's, shows up
wanting to see her estranged friend, she's bothered by the
fact that Ray isn't looking for his wife. She quickly
begins to suspect that Ray may be responsible for Leigh's
disappearance and starts an investigation.
But Ray is obsessing over his old homes and his collection
of keys. He kept keys from every place he lived with his
mother and he begins taking those keys and going back to
the houses. Surprisingly, since people rarely change locks,
many still work. He's looking for something, but he's not
sure what -- and he's a little unsure he wants to know.
As he begins to understand the violence of his past, Ray
must face violence in the present.
Clear your schedule for another terrific Perri
O'Shaughnessy book. "Did he or didn't he" is the primary
question, and while there are many others, that one alone
will keep you flipping pages, tempted for the first time in
your life to read the end -- first. Excellent and chilling!
When Leigh Jackson disappeared, her husband, Ray, seemed
clueless: Has she run away? Was she a crime victim? Ray
himself is enigmatic: a brilliant but obsessive architect,
secretive yet devoted to exposing the truth. And while he
begins his quest to discover what Leigh disappearance may
means—and how it may be tied to his peripatetic childhood—
Leigh's best friend begins investigating Ray ... an
investigation that cannot seem to open the locked doors of
his past.
