Sinopsis

Cambodia, 2001 - a country re-emerging from a half-century of war, genocide, famine and cultural collapse.
 
German Detective Maier travels to Phnom Penh, the Asian kingdom's ramshackle capital, to find the heir to a Hamburg coffee empire. As soon as the private eye and former war reporter arrives in Cambodia, his search for the young coffee magnate leads into the darkest corners of the country's history.
 
A beautiful, scarred woman with a mythical and frightening past, a Khmer Rouge general, an expat gangster, an old flame, a man-eating shark and a gang of teenage girl assassins lead the detective back in time, through the communist revolution and to the White Spider: a Nazi war criminal who hides amongst the detritus of another nation's collapse and reigns over an ancient Khmer temple deep in the jungles of Cambodia.
 
Captured and imprisoned, Maier is forced into the worst job of his life. He is to write the biography of the White Spider - a tale of mass murder that reaches from the Cambodian Killing Fields back to Europe's concentration camps - or die.

    When they force their way back into my world, claiming it’s for my protection, I make one thing clear: I haven’t forgotten the pain they caused. As more secrets come to light, I soon realize there’s only one man for me, and I’ll never let him go. 
    Not that he’d let me even if I tried.

    A big-city journalist joins the staff of a small-town paper in cottage country and finds a community full of secrets . . . and murder. 
     
     
     
    Cat Conway has recently returned to Port Ellis to work as a reporter at the Quill & Packet. She's fled the tattered remains of her high-profile career and bad divorce for the holiday town of her childhood, famous for its butter tarts, theater, and a century-old feud. 
     
     
     
    One of Cat's first assignments is to interview legendary actor Eliot Fraser, the lead in the theater's season opener of Inherit the Wind. When Eliot ends up dead onstage on opening night, the curtain rises on the sleepy town's secrets. The suspects include the actor whose career Eliot ruined, the ex-wife he betrayed, the women he abused, and even the baker he wronged. With the attention of the world on Port Ellis, this story could be Cat's chance to restore her reputation. But the police think she's a suspect, and the murderer wants to kill the story—and her too. Can Cat solve the mystery before she loses her job or becomes the next victim of a killer with a theatrical bent for vengeance?
