Book Synopsis

How do you find a killer who leaves no trace?

New York Times bestseller Julia Spencer-Fleming returns to her gripping Clare Fergusson/Russ Van Alstyne mystery series with a compelling case that spans decades.

''Thrilling, chilling and the suspense is killing'' Val McDermid

Two murders, twenty years apart, with eerie similarities: a woman in a party dress murdered with no obvious cause of death. The last known suspect? Russ Van Alstyne, never convicted but never completely cleared either.

Now, decades later, a third young woman is found under similar circumstances. It''s a new case that opens old wounds for Russ, now a police chief himself.

With three crimes spanning generations, and Russ himself under suspicion, the pressure is on for him to solve the murder or risk losing everything he loves.
