Refreshingly smart, witty, and sophisticated . . . --Natalie Symons author of Lies in Bone, on The Disappearance of Trudy Solomon
Propulsive, addictive, with lush, visceral prose and richly-layered characters . . . --May Cobb, author of My Summer Darlings, on The Murder of Madison Garcia
The summer of '69: memorable for some, murder for others.
Detective Susan Ford and her new partner, Detective Jack Tomelli, are called to a crime scene at the local summer stock theater where they find the director of Murder on the Orient Express gruesomely murdered--naked, face caked in makeup, pillow at his feet, wrists and ankles bound by rope. When Susan describes the murder to her dad, retired detective Will Ford, he recognizes the MO of a 1969 serial killer . . . a case he worked fifty years ago.
Will remembers a lot of things about that summer--the Woodstock Festival, the Apollo 11 moon landing, the Miracle Mets--yet he is fuzzy on the details of the decades-old case. But when Susan and Jack discover the old case files, his memories start trickling back. And with each old and new clue, Susan, Jack, and Will must narrow down the pool of suspects before the killer strikes again.
For readers who enjoy mysteries by Richard Osman, Stacy Willingham, Charlie Donlea, Benjamin Stevenson, and Shari Lapena.
