ELEVEN DAYS: CARRIGAN AND MILLER
Book ID/图书代码： 00200013B63270
English Summary/英文概要： A fire rages through a sleepy West London square, engulfing a small convent hidden away among the residential houses. When DI Jack Carrigan and DS Geneva Miller arrive at the scene they discover eleven bodies, yet there were only supposed to be ten nuns in residence.
It’s eleven days before Christmas, and despite their superiors wanting the case solved before the holidays, Carrigan and Miller start to suspect that the nuns were not who they were made out to be. Why did they make no move to escape the fire? Who is the eleventh victim, whose body was found separate to the others? And where is the convent’s priest, the one man who can answer their questions?
Fighting both internal politics and the church hierarchy, Carrigan and Miller unravel the threads of a case which reaches back to the early 1970s, and the upsurge of radical Liberation Theology in South America - with echoes of the Shining Path, and contemporary battles over oil, land and welfare. Meanwhile, closer to home, there’s a new threat in the air, one the police are entirely unprepared for...
Spanning four decades and two continents, Eleven Days finds Carrigan and Miller up against time as they face a new kind of criminal future.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 一场大火肆虐过了沉睡中的西伦敦广场，吞噬了藏匿在居民楼群中的一座小型女修道院。当探长杰克•卡里根与警长吉内瓦•米勒到达事故现场时，他们发现了十一具尸体，然而女修道院里却只有十名修女。
距离圣诞节仅剩下短短的十天了，尽管他们的上司表明希望能够在节日之前解决这次的案件，卡里根和米勒却不得不开始怀疑或许这些死去的人并非真正的修女。为何死者没有任何试图逃跑的迹象？而第十一名遇难者又是谁，他的尸体为何远离其他人的尸体所在地？而那个唯一能够回答他们询问的修道院牧师如今又身在何处？
卡里根与米勒不仅要与政治内斗做斗争，还需要应对来自教堂的森严等级制度，他们发现20世纪70年代早期的另一个案件极有可能是本次案件的线索所在，当时美国南部引发了一场激进派自由神学运动的高潮---这一高潮至今仍在光辉之路、当代石油之争以及土地与福利之争中有着一定的影响力。与此同时，另一个全新的危机正欲降临，而一名警察还未完全做好应对的准备。。。。。。
小说中的故事横跨了四十年的时间跨度与两个大陆的地理距离，《十一日》使得卡里根与米勒再次与时间赛跑，而这一次，他们也将面对一个全新的未来犯罪世界。（DC）
