When Alexandra Sanabria, the daughter of a deceased Mafia don, opened Whisper Ridge in 1992, she had intended the expensive building as the setting for a unique program for paroled murders. But the program never got off the ground, and the home has been vacant for twelve years. Uninhabited, it remains as a strange monument to dangerous secrets. While the couple’s abrupt exit was unique, it was also not regarded as criminal until the bones of Alexandra’s husband were found more than a decade later.
Private investigator Lincoln Perry isn’t thrilled about the case he’s now involved in--or his client. Parker Harrison served fifteen years for murder, but he claims Alexandra’s intervention saved his life, and now he wants to find her. It’s a task that will challenge both Perry’s abilities as a detective and his commitment to that calling.
Once again Koryta has crafted an intricate, fast-paced thriller, ratcheting up the tension as he explores just how dangerous the offer of a second chance can be. This latest installment in the Lincoln Perry series, which the Chicago Tribune calls “addictively readable,” marks another step forward in this remarkable career.
