Reviews"This detective has a mind that is always on the move." -New York Times Book Review "Martinelli's the kind of person you'd like to know and talk with over many lunches, a smart and tough woman." -Chicago Tribune "King's plotting, characters, and setting are flawless, complex and tantalizing." -Romantic Times "Thoroughly enjoyable, well-plotted and well-characterized ... a first-rate demonstration of just how well Ms. King has mastered the art of detection." -Mystery Readers Journal
SynopsisINSPECTOR KATE MARTINELLI has worked the SFPD's Homicide Detail for nearly thirty years. She knows all about how a cop builds a case bit by bit to create a clear story from the scattered pieces of evidence. Until the day her fifteen-year-old daughter, Nora, happens to ask about an aunt she'd never met. Kate's kid sister died in the 1980s, a wild young woman who lost control of a car and hit a tree, end of story ... except it isn't. Because once Kate begins to look, seeking to reassure Nora that it was only a senseless accident and not the suicide a small town's gossip made it, she starts to find pieces that don't fit the picture. Holes in the evidence. Mismatched fragments that change the story Kate has told herself all these years-the story that for her, was the beginning of everything. What did happen in Diamond Lake that night? Was it an accident, or a hushed-up suicide? Or was her sister's death something darker yet?

  • slim but sharp

    its a skinny little book - but well written. no flab here. I enjoyed it and wish there were more Kate Martinelli books. Much as I enjoy Mary, and the freestanding ones like Folly and Lock down. One of my favorite authors
