The dead man was an elite D.A. from Boston whose beat was the citys toughest neighborhood: Mission Flats. For local police chief Ben Truman, investigating the murder will mean leaving his quiet home and joining a vengeful manhunt in a world of hard streets and harder bargains. The cops have zeroed in on a suspect, a ruthless predator targeted for prosecution by the murdered D.A. But Ben distrusts the Boston police-especially when he uncovers a secret history of murder and retribution stretching back twenty years. As past and present collide, as tribal loyalties threaten to lynch an innocent man-or let a guilty one go free-one thing remains certain: The most powerful revelations are yet to come.Includes an excerpt of Defending JacobA crackling debut that answers the question: Who will be the next Grisham?-Kirkus Reviews (starred review)An inventive, gripping suspense debut . . .
