The New York Times bestselling author of the acclaimed standalones After I’m Gone, I’d Know You Anywhere, and What the Dead Know,
challenges our notions of memory, loyalty, responsibility, and justice
in this evocative and psychologically complex story about a long-ago
death that still haunts a family.
Luisa “Lu” Brant is the newly
elected—and first female—state’s attorney of Howard County, Maryland, a
job in which her widower father famously served. Fiercely intelligent
and ambitious, she sees an opportunity to make her name by trying a
mentally disturbed drifter accused of beating a woman to death in her
home. It’s not the kind of case that makes headlines, but peaceful
Howard county doesn’t see many homicides.
As Lu prepares for the
trial, the case dredges up painful memories, reminding her small but
tight-knit family of the night when her brother, AJ, saved his best
friend at the cost of another man’s life. Only eighteen, AJ was cleared
by a grand jury. Now, Lu wonders if the events of 1980 happened as she
remembers them. What details might have been withheld from her when she
was a child?
