| In this acclaimed psychological thriller, a man is haunted by a killer who terrorized his rural Southern hometown: “a tour de force” (Michael Connelly). Georgia, 1939. In the small community of Augusta Falls, twelve-year-old Joseph Vaughn is devastated to learn of a female classmate’s brutal murder. She had been his friend—someone Joseph loved—and she was far from the killer’s last victim. A few years later, Joseph is determined to protect his town, but he is powerless in preventing more murders—and no one is ever caught. Ten years later, a neighbor is found hanging from a rope, surrounded by belongings of the dead girls. The killings cease. The nightmare appears to be over. Plagued by everything he has witnessed, Joseph sets out to forge a new life in New York. But even there the past won’t leave him alone—for it seems that the murderer still lives and is killing again, and that the secret to his identity lies in Joseph’s own history. |
