When the body of Theodore Walter, a wealthy business tycoon, is found on the office floor of his private home in Oakfields during his empire's anniversary party, Detective Lucas Stratford is called to the crime scene. As the murdered man was an internationally acclaimed icon, Lucas couldn't work alone so he paired up with fellow detective, Kirsten Morgan, from the homicide department of the neighboring town of Pinefields, to help him ferret out the criminal. When the body of minor suspect and Theodore's closest friend is found in the garden behind her restaurant, Lucas realized that there was more to the case that met the eye. He also began to entertain the possibility of more than one killer at work. As Lucas and Kirsten dug deeper into Theodore's secretive life, they are plunged headfirst into the dark world of the seemingly charitable mogul, a world characterized by rape, greed and murder, a world coated with blood and vengeance, a world where nothing and no one are really what they seem to be. When they both thought they had it all figured out, another twist reared its ugly head. Can Lucas and Kirsten uncover the truth before someone else gets killed? Absolutely gripping, this fast-faced debut crime thriller will keep you glued to the edge of your seat. A perfect read for fans of James Patterson, Rachel Caine and Sidney Sheldon.
