From John Hart, the masterful New York Occasions bestselling and two-time Edgar Award-winning author of The Last Child and Down River, comes this tour de force of murder and the dark ripples it sends by a man, his household and community.
Jackson Workman Pickens-identified to most as Work-mindlessly holds together his life: a failing legislation follow left to him when his father, Ezra, mysteriously disappeared, a distant wife, and a fragile sister, Jean, broken by the shared previous they’ve endured.
And then Ezra’s body is discovered.
Set to inherit his father’s fortune, Work becomes a first-rate suspect. But so does Jean. Fearing the worst, Work launches his own investigation, crossing paths with a power-hungry detective, a string of damning evidence, and the ugly rumors that swirl within his small, moneyed Southern town. Desperate for the redemption that has eluded him for thus many years and stripped of every little thing he as soon as valued, Work fights to save lots of his sister, clear his identify, and regain the love of the lady to whom he gave his heart so a few years before.
