For fans of Louise Penny's Chief Inspector Gamache Mysteries.

"Wright is a master of the psychological thriller."-Booklist

A refugee from big-city policing, Karl Alberg thinks he's seen it all, but he's not even going to know what hit him.

In this Arthur Ellis Award-winning sequel to cult classic The Suspect, Alberg's search for the truth takes him to British Columbia's Sunshine Coast and into the secluded house of Zoe Strachan, a woman of seductive beauty and shattering secrets.

At the same time, Alberg investigates the sudden disappearance of an elderly widow from a village nursing home... a disappearance he doesn't connect with the Strachan case until it is almost too late, when the two seemingly unrelated events converge in a chilling act of violence and evil that will challenge Alberg's utmost powers of perception as a detective-and as a man.

Winner of the Crime Writers of Canada Award of Excellence for best novel.

"A truly splendid book-compassionate, humorous, erotic, and suspenseful... Stayed with me long after I turned the last page." -Jonathan Kellerman, author of Self-Defense

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

L.R. Wright ("Bunny" to her family and friends) was best known for her celebrated mystery series set in a little town on Western Canada's Sunshine Coast, featuring Karl Alberg of the Canadian police. In 1986 the first book in the series, The Suspect, won the Edgar Award for Best Novel of the Year, making Wright the first Canadian to be so honored. Two other books in the series--A Chill Rain in January and Mother Love--won Arthur Ellis Awards (now the Crime Writers of Canada Awards of Excellence). Wright died in 2001, and in 2024 the Alberg & Cassandra series was adapted for television as Murder In a Small Town.
