COBEN’s latest features three people for whom the American dream has turned sour. The reason? A dark secret buried in their pasts.
Seventeen years earlier, Ray Levine was an award-winning young photojournalist with his life in front of him. Cassie, the woman he loved, was a good-time girl with a love for walking on the wild side; Jack Broome a homicide detective who never gave up the search for the truth.
But something happened one night at Mardi Gras. It left Ray scarred, embittered and broken, earning a living by photographing rich men at play.
Cassie disappeared, only to re-emerge years later as a bored and frustrated housewife. And Broome – he’s a man obsessed with the search for a serial killer.
All three collide once again when a spoilt young man disappears and his rich father hires two psychotic killers to try to find him.
An explosive, gripping thriller with unexpected depths lurking among the secrets, lies and shadows.
