At the doors of a charming country church, an unspeakable act destroys a wedding party. A huge manhunt ensues. The culprit is captured. The story is over.
Except it isn’ t. For Alan Banks, still struggling with a tragic loss of his own, there’ s something wrong about this case— something unresolved. Reteaming with profiler Jenny Fuller, the relentless detective dives deeper into the crime . . . deep enough to unearth long-buried secrets that reshape everything Banks thought he knew about the events outside that chapel.
And when at last the shocking truth becomes clear, it’ s almost too late.
Packed with twists and turns, heart and soul, this is another triumph from an author “ at the top of his game” (Louise Penny).
