Edgar Award Finalist: A Florida crime reporter juggles multiple mysteries in a novel that "pulses with excitement, grit and vérité" (Faye Kellerman,
New York Times-bestselling author).
On the police beat for her Miami newspaper, Cuban-born Britt Montero has a lot on her hands. She's investigating a series of bizarre deaths involving sex, electrocution, and freshly poured concrete. As if that isn't enough, there's the long-unsolved murder of a young girl that may implicate the frontrunner in the governor's race. And at the same time, she's on the trail of a serial rapist-who targets her in retaliation for her stories. . .
In this novel, the author of
The Corpse Had a Familiar Face offers "crime fiction that matches the high level of her Pulitzer prize-winning crime reporting" (
Publishers Weekly).
"Buchanan is very good at capturing the flavor of South Florida and Miami, and her experience as a crime reporter makes her characters convincing." -
