Book ID/图书代码： 04560014B73729
English Summary/英文概要： For fans of James Lee Burke, Mo Hayder, Gillian Flynn and True Detective, JM Gulvin introduces a memorable new series character and a stunning, twisting tale.
Marion County, 1967: a Texas Ranger, a burnt out asylum, a soldier back from Vietnam and his missing twin brother.
Single father, veteran and Ranger, John Quarrie is called to the scene of an apparent suicide by a fellow war veteran. The local police want the case shut down; John Q is convinced that events aren’t quite so straightforward.
When his theory is backed up by the son of the dead man, Isaac – just back from Vietnam and convinced his father was murdered – they start to look into a series of other violent incidents in the area, including a recent fire at the local Trinity Asylum and the subsequent disappearance of Isaac’s twin brother, Ishmael.
Are the incidents all linked? Is Isaac telling the whole truth about his brother? In a desperate race against time, John Q has to try and unravel the dark secrets at the heart of the family and get to the truth before the count is up.
Dripping with atmosphere and a stunning sense of place, this is a page-turner and a psychological puzzle to rival Shutter Island.
