Synopsis
As did the two previous novels, the third John Cardinal rural police procedural gains inspiration from an actual case. A confused red-haired woman stumbles into a bar, her body marked all over by black-fly bites and the bullet lodged in her head robbing her of both memory and identity. Trying to discover who attempted to murder the woman, and why, draws Algonquin Bay homicide detective Cardinal into an investigation involving bikers, drug dealers, and a Cuban cult that practices human sacrifice.

Publisher's Note

Industry reviews
"Blunt transposes an actual true-crime story...into the North Woods....[W]hat Blunt does with the true-crime graft...is amazing. His characters...are wonderfully realistic; his pacing never flags; his knowledge of police procedure is accurate without being show-offy; and he leaves his reader not so much with a story as with a glimpse into a perfectly realized world. First-rate." (starred review)
Booklist - Connie Fletcher (05/01/2005)

"[A] searing portrait of a cop unable to prevent his wife's self-destruction."
Kirkus  (05/01/2005)

"[H]ighly disturbing but truly memorable....The action will glue readers to the page, but hte plot is equally moving in its quieter, more poignant moments....[T]he pulsing, tightly plotted narrative again shows why Blunt...should be considered among the new practitioners of crime drama's elite."
Publishers Weekly  (05/09/2005)

"Blunt extends extraordinary sympathy to the small-time dealers and junkies caught up in an environmental plague more devastating than any devised by nature."
New York Times Book Review - Marilyn Stasio (06/12/2005)
