Beschreibung

A tale of two sisters in danger—and the New Orleans detective trying to protect them—from a USA Today–bestselling “master of romantic suspense” (Booklist).   Frantic to escape her paranoid, violent husband—a Louisiana senator—Holly Ames takes her young son and flees into the dead of night. Four weeks later, prosecutor-turned-defense-attorney Meredith Rawson’s dying mother makes a shocking confession. Now Meredith is on a journey to fulfill her mother’s last wish that she find the half sister she never knew: Holly Ames. But before she can begin her search, her home is ransacked and her life threatened . . . Haunted by his dark past, all New Orleans PD homicide detective Gage Gaynor wants is to put predators away and clean up a city riddled with crime. The hunt for a killer will bring him to Meredith’s door and into the middle of a world of privilege and corruption where the ties that bind can be the most lethal of all.

But somehow, at the urging of Donald Morris, an enthusiastic Sherlockian, she finds herself talked into attending a séance, along with baker and best friend Jayne Wilson, store assistant, Ashleigh, and former pop star Bunny Leigh. But to her surprise, Gemma finds herself banned from the séance and shown the door. Curious, she listens in from outside the room. The medium informs a disappointed Donald that Sir Arthur Conan Doyle will not be able to make it tonight. Then, Gemma hears a voice cut off, a cry for help, a scream. Gemma bursts into the library to see that someone has collapsed on the table—dead. The windows are all locked, and Gemma was guarding the only door. Someone in this room is a murderer. But who? The game is once again afoot for Gemma Doyle as she hunts a killer. But, this time, is the killer of flesh and blood, or had the medium summoned doom from beyond the veil?

    The Trespasser by Tana French is a mystery novel in which Detective Antoinette Conway investigates the death of a young woman who was murdered. Although the circumstances surrounding her death seem obvious at first, Conway and her partner Steve Moran soon find themselves drawn into a delicate, complex investigation that could cost them their jobs. 
     
    The story begins just as Conway and Moran are finishing a night shift at Dublin Murder Squad. As they prepare to leave, their superintendent, O’Kelly, personally hands them a case, which is unusual. He says they’ll be working with Breslin, a senior detective who will serve as their mentor even though Conway will be in charge. The partners aren’t thrilled; the case looks banal and Breslin is famously annoying. 
     
    Moran reads the file on their way to the crime scene; the police received a tip from an anonymous caller. The detectives assume the victim’s death…
