"On a steamy, overcast September evening, Dr. Maslow Atkins, a promising young New York psychiatrist, goes into Central Park for a quick run and doesn't come out. When April Woo receives the missing persons report, her usually flawless cop instincts prompt her to investigate immediately, even if it means going outside her jurisdiction and outside her authority. But when the high-profile K-9 search she orders yields nothing, the media whips into a frenzy, bringing the fury of the entire police department down upon April. Still, she can't shake her belief that Maslow is alive, and refuses to give up." "When a second victim is found dead, the case kicks into high gear - the circle of suspects widens, the file of evidence grows, and the pressure on April to crack it intensifies. Working against time, April grapples with a lethal tangle of family secrets and unveils a deadly adolescent rage from which now one can escape unscathed. For no family, including Maslow's, truly knows its own story or is as innocent as it seems."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved
