But the key to solving Aimée's death just might have been buried with her beautiful ancestor.

Review:
The more things change, the more they stay the same. McCabe is going thru life changes that make him question his profession, as well as who he wants in his life. Savage is trying to keep him on an even keel, without anyone knowing, especially his ex. A found dead teenager starts the solve clock running and is the current murder an echo from the past, or the beginnings of a serial killer? Hayman does a great job taking the reader back and forth in the past, offering clues (and red herrings), so that you can't stop turning pages until the surprise ending. The ending will leave you wanting to see how everything plays out in the next book, as consequences of actions while solving this crime, will have far reaching effects and put the duo under scrutiny yet again.
Don't miss this latest Mcabe and Savage thriller, it might be the best one so far!
