Summary:
"A perfect-pitch story of love and redemption" (The New York Times),
Boyd's atmospheric new novel confirms his reputation as heir to the
grand narrative traditions of Joseph Conrad and Somerset Maugham. In
1936 Los angeles, as her long-estranged father tells architect Kay
Fischer the story behind her secret parentage, he plunges readers
into a tale of grisly murders and an illicit passion that still
obsseses him 30 years later. 384 pp. Author tour.
