The best crime fiction rarely shows its hand in the first chapter. The truth arrives slowly and hurts all the more as a result. A rewired brain and two murders reopened by a school massacre. An ex-con returning to Vegas on a job set up more carefully than she knows. A missing teenager who pulls a sports agent through country clubs, cheaters' hotels and a twenty-three-year-old humiliation. A Bromley detective who expected quiet and found a community with more to hide than it appeared. Four writers with one shared instinct.

Excellent choice. I have only read 3 books so far but have enjoyed them immensely and I am looking forward to the next book. I have bought from bookhound before and will again. Thank you.
Ian Rankin is always a good read but it is interesting to have one of his other series which shows a different style and for me the best read in the selection.
