Sister

Résumé du livre

"A Lawrence De Maria title gives you more bang for your buck than just about anything in the book marketplace today." (FLORIDA WEEKLY); "If you like strong characterizations, great dialogue and surprises, Pulitzer-nominee Lawrence De Maria's Alton Rhode mysteries are in a class by themselves." (John Crudele, NEW YORK POST); "A master of thriller dialogue." (WASHINGTON INDEPENDENT REVIEW OF BOOKS)***A nun's murder in Massachusetts brings two homicide detectives to Alton Rhode's office. The New York private eye is quickly cleared as a suspect, but is stunned when he finds out who the victim was. Before she became a nun, the dead woman was his first love - a young girl who disappeared mysteriously, leaving him bereft. Plagued by long-suppressed memories, Rhode dedicates himself to finding the killer. But the police are stumped. There are no suspects, clues or obvious motive. But then a pattern emerges, which sets Rhode on a cross-country hunt for a probable serial killer. What he eventually discovers in SISTER shocks him to the core.***Winner of an Associated Press award for crime reporting, Lawrence De Maria cut his teeth on financial corruption at The New York Times and Forbes.
