    FINALIST for 2020 Independent Audiobook Award - Mystery 
    Never try to catch a falling knife. 
    Ex-NYPD detective Evan Adair has finally figured out what’s good for him: to step back and allow death its dominion. The truth, after all, doesn't bring the dead back. It’s a lesson Adair has had to learn the hard way. 
    But when a brilliant young man dies by violence – the victim of an apparently impossible crime – the case calls out to Adair like a siren’s song. He can’t stay away, not even when it threatens to drag him down into the chasm of his own grief. 
    The mystery draws Adair deep inside the worlds of high finance and high-stakes biotech, lands full of strange fauna and complicated lies. The weapons of choice look like numbers and dollar signs – but the blood they draw runs red. Red as the blood that haunts Evan Adair’s dreams.

    Twice Told Tales - The Lost...

    Twice-Told Tales is a short story collection in two volumes by Nathaniel Hawthorne. The first was published in the spring of 1837, and the second in 1842. The stories had all been previously published in magazines and annuals, hence the name. 
     
    Hawthorne was an American novelist, dark romantic, and short story writer. His works often focus on history, morality, and religion. He was born in 1804 in Salem, Massachusetts, from a family long associated with that town. Hawthorne entered Bowdoin College in 1821 and graduated in 1825. He published his first work in 1828, the novel Fanshawe; he later tried to suppress it, feeling it was not equal to the standard of his later work.[He published several short stories in periodicals, which he collected in 1837 as Twice-Told Tales. The following year, he became engaged to Sophia Peabody. He worked at the Boston Custom House and joined Brook Farm, a transcendentalist community, before marrying Peabody in 1842. The couple moved to The Old Manse in Concord, Massachusetts, later moving to Salem, the Berkshires, then to The Wayside in Concord. The Scarlet Letter was published in 1850, followed by a succession of other novels. A political appointment as consul took Hawthorne and family to Europe before their return to Concord in 1860. Hawthorne died on May 19, 1864, and was survived by his wife and their three children.
