_________________________________
A gripping thriller featuring an ordinary woman who will stop at nothing to find the missing people that the rest of the world has forgotten.
Frankie Elkin is an average middle-aged woman with more regrets than belongings who spends her life doing what no one else will: searching for missing people the world has stopped looking for. When the police have given up, when the public no longer remembers, when the media has never paid attention, Frankie starts looking.
A new case brings Frankie to Mattapan, a Boston neighborhood with a rough reputation. She is searching for Angelique Badeau, a Haitian teenager who vanished from her high school months earlier.
Resistance from the Boston PD and the victim's wary family tells Frankie she's on her own. And she soon learns she's asking questions someone doesn't want answered.
But Frankie will stop at nothing to discover the truth, even if it means the next person to go missing will be her ...

Mélanie sait bien qu’elle a été adoptée, que le charmant Dr Harper Stokes, honorablement connu à Boston, n’est pas son véritable père. Mais elle est loin de se douter qu’elle est en réalité la fille de Russell Holmes, un assassin condamné à mort et exécuté vingt ans plus tôt pour le meurtre de six enfants… dont la propre fille de Harper et de Patricia Stokes. C’est un journaliste de presse à scandale qui lui fait cette révélation. La petite fille qu’elle était alors n’a-t-elle pas été retrouvée comme par hasard, abandonnée et amnésique, à l’hôpital où travaillait justement Stokes, et au moment même de l’exécution de Russell Holmes ? Et qui donc a intérêt à déterrer cette affaire ?
Quand menaces et appels anonymes commencent à lui parvenir, Mélanie se confie au FBI. Mais le jour où le journaliste est retrouvé mort dans des circonstances mystérieuses, elle comprend que son désir de connaître la vérité sur son passé risque de mettre en péril, au-delà de sa raison, sa vie même…

Les Denbe semblaient sortir des pages des magazines glamour : un mariage modèle, une belle situation, une ravissante fille de quinze ans, une demeure somptueuse dans la banlieue chic de Boston... une vie de rêve.
Jusqu'au jour où ils disparaissent tous les trois. Pas d'effraction, pas de témoin, pas de motifs, pas de demande de rançon. Juste quelques traces de pas et des débris de cartouches de Taser sur le sol de leur maison. Pour la détective privée Tessa Leoni, l'enlèvement ne fait aucun doute. Mais que pouvait bien cacher une existence en apparence aussi lisse ?
Nº1 sur la liste des best-sellers du New York Times, le nouveau thriller de Lisa Gardner nous plonge dans l'intimité fascinante et terrible d'une famille au-dessus de tout soupçon.
« Un nouveau tour de force. » Associated Press
« Un suspense insoutenable. » Sunday Miror
Deux meurtres spectaculaires sont perpétrés à Boston à six semaines d’intervalle. Dans les deux cas, les victimes sont des femmes seules, atrocement mutilées, à côté desquelles l’assassin a déposé une rose.
L’inspectrice D.D. Warren, chargée de l’enquête, décèle vite une similitude entre ces mises en scène macabres et une longue série de meurtres ayant défrayé la chronique à Boston quarante ans plus tôt et dont l’auteur, Harry Day, s’est suicidé depuis.
Seul recours pour D.D. Warren : se rapprocher des deux filles de Harry Day. Se pourrait-il qu’il y ait un lien entre les récents crimes et Shana et Adeline ? Pour le savoir, D.D. Warren va devoir se confronter à cette interrogation : peut-on échapper à son destin lorsqu’il est marqué du sceau de la mort ?
Une plongée stupéfiante au cœur d’un enfer familial : Lisa Gardner s’impose définitivement comme une virtuose du thriller psychologique.
If your family are killers,
what are you?
