A DEEPER DARKNESS
Book ID/图书代码: 14939914B68015
English Summary/英文概要: As a medical examiner, Samantha Owens knows her job is to make a certain sense of death with crisp methodology and precision instruments.
But the day the Tennessee floods took her husband and children, the light vanished from Sam’s life. She has been pulled into a suffocating grief no amount of workaholic ardor can penetrate—until she receives a peculiar call from Washington, D.C.
On the other end of the line is an old boyfriend’s mother, asking Sam to do a second autopsy on her son. Eddie Donovan is officially the victim of a vicious carjacking, but under Sam’s sharp eye the forensics tell a darker story. The ex-Ranger was murdered, though not for his car.
Forced to confront the burning memories and feelings about yet another loved one killed brutally, Sam loses herself in the mystery contained within Donovan’s old notes. It leads her to the untouchable Xander, a soldier off-grid since his return from Afghanistan, and then to a series of brutal crimes stretching from that harsh mountainous war zone to this nation’s capital. The tale told between the lines makes it clear that nobody’s hands are clean, and that making sense of murder sometimes means putting yourself in the crosshairs of death.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 作为一名法医, 萨曼莎•欧文斯知道她的工作就是运用最新的科学方法和精密的仪器来验证死亡的定义。
但当田纳西州的洪水卷走了她的丈夫和孩子们时,萨曼莎的生活就此陷入了一片灰暗之中。她就此陷入了无尽的悲伤之中,哪怕再多的工作投入也无法摆脱这场伤逝,直到她收到了一个来自华盛顿特区的奇怪电话。
电话的那头是她前男友的母亲,请求萨曼莎给自己的儿子再做一次尸检。埃迪•多诺万是一起恶性车祸的受难者,但在萨曼莎锐利的法医眼睛中却看出了一个黑暗的故事。这位前美国陆军游骑兵是被谋杀的,而非他的座驾车祸所致。
被迫面对激情岁月的记忆和自己曾经挚爱被残忍杀害的现实,萨曼莎在多诺万的旧笔记中发现了一些神秘的蛛丝马迹。这让她了解了到了不可捉摸的桑德,一个从阿富汗战场回来后就杳无音讯的士兵,再到一系列发生在多山战区残忍暴行一直延伸至这个国家的首都。在笔记的字里行间中无疑清楚地透露出在这场战争中没有一个人的手是干净的,而制造谋杀的同时,有时便意味着将你自己也陷入于死亡境地。(Sandy)
