Sinopsis

In this “stunning [and] enthralling” thriller from an Edgar Award–winning author, a politician’s wife covers up her hit and run and gets blackmailed (Miami News). 
 
On a country road on a dark, rainy night, Martha Bascom’s life is changed forever. As the young wife of Lem Bascom, the front-runner in a gubernatorial race and a presidential hopeful, Martha has everything to lose when she accidentally hits a man with her car. Convinced by a political ally to cover up the incident, Martha reluctantly agrees. 
 
Then her nightmare begins. Someone knows the truth and is determined to torture her with it. Soon she falls prey to a terrifying blackmail scheme, a secret she can share with no one. Especially her husband. She might be protecting him, but will Martha be able to save herself?

    A stormy evening of olive and silver was closing in, as Father Brown, wrapped in a grey Scotch plaid, came to the end of a grey Scotch valley and beheld the strange castle of Glengyle. It stopped one end of the glen or hollow like a blind alley; and it looked like the end of the world. Rising in steep roofs and spires of seagreen slate in the manner of the old French-Scotch chateaux, it reminded an Englishman of the sinister steeple-hats of witches in fairy tales; and the pine woods that rocked round the green turrets looked, by comparison, as black as numberless flocks of ravens.

    When Marlon Newberry is gunned down outside a the apartment house where he has attended a party, the case reeks of something more sinister than a street hit. Detectives Abe Gold and Barbara Cortez follow the trail, but it's private investigator Sam Sharpe who's hired to uncover the truth. 
    What Sharpe finds is a shadow world of cons and corruption-fake antiques sold for fortunes, fortune-tellers bleeding the wealthy dry, and real estate scams designed to ruin lives. 
    At the center is Angie Evison, a breathtaking femme fatale whose beauty hides a ruthless mind. Her crew doesn't just cheat marks-they silence them. 
    Meanwhile, Judah Hammer's criminal empire is threatened from within. Lou Fedorov, one of his most trusted men, has fallen under Angie's spell-caught between loyalty to his boss and obsession with the woman who may have ordered Marlon's death. 
    As Sharpe digs deeper, his own dark past resurfaces, putting a target on his back. 
    The cons are deadly, the betrayals cut deep, and in this game, losing means more than money-it means your life. 
    Perfect for fans of gritty noir and hard-edged crime thrillers.
