Tortured myself (instead of paying attention to the early warning signs) until well over halfway through: a lame-ass, boring, plodding, completely implausible plot – an unlikeable investigator (with an even more unlikeable wife and a completely unlikeable child) – constant know-it-all, patronizing woke messages from the author. ( ) I don't really know how I feel about this one...it was good, a little convoluted but I enjoyed it. On the other hand I have no desire to read any other books in the series and I don't know how to reconcile that. I guess if it was that compelling I'd have wanted to read on, but since I don't I guess it was just ok...and thus this one goes to the used book store and out of my life.... I had not read a Kenzie & Gennaro book in years but I did have the final book in the series on shelf and decided to finally get to it. The team had solved a missing girl case, twelve years ago, when Amanda McCready was 4 years old. She is sixteen now and has disappeared again. This is a good solid series and I plan on getting to the remaining 2 or 3, that I have not read. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

Amanda McCready was four years old when she vanished from a Boston neighborhood twelve years ago. Desperate pleas for help from the child's aunt led investigators Kenzie and Gennaro to take on the case. The pair risked everything to find the young girl, only to orchestrate her return to a neglectful mother and a broken home. Now Amanda is sixteen and gone again. A stellar student, brilliant but aloof, she seemed destined to escape her upbringing. Yet Amanda's aunt is once more knocking on Patrick Kenzie's door, fearing the worst for the little girl who has blossomed into a striking, clever young woman, a woman who hasn't been seen in weeks. Haunted by their consciences, Kenzie and Gennaro revisit the case that troubled them the most. Their search leads them into a world of identity thieves, methamphetamine dealers, a mentally unstable crime boss and his equally demented wife, a priceless, thousand-year-old cross, and a happily homicidal Russian gangster. It's a world in which motives and allegiances constantly shift and mistakes are fatal. In their desperate fight to confront the past and find Amanda McCready, Kenzie and Gennaro will be forced to question if it's possible to do the wrong thing and still be right or to do the right thing and still be wrong. As they face an evil that goes beyond broken families and broken dreams, they discover that the sins of yesterday don't always stay buried and the crimes of today could end their lives.
