I was riveted from first page to last' ADRIAN MCKINTY'Among the cleverest, most accomplished and compassionate of Irish crime writers' JOHN CONNOLLYWhen Jody Kavanagh is discovered close to death in her home, it's hard to believe someone could have wanted to hurt her. Young, talented, loved by those around her - she appears to have it all. As she lies in a coma, Detective Inspector Elliot Ryan and Sergeant Nola Kane begin to piece together a picture of her life - but the image revealed is very far from perfect. Is her ex-husband really who he seems to be? Why are her mother and sister estranged? Why is her house full of cameras? Who was Jody afraid of - and was she right? Haunted by guilt and in chronic pain, DI Ryan has his own demons to slay. And Kane, who has recently come out the worse of an incident where the professional and personal overlapped, needs to prove herself. From the shaky glamour of Irish high society to the cold heart of two broken families, Ryan and Kane must work against hidden forces to restore their reputations and find who wanted to kill Jody - and why.
