'In Santa Teresa, California, approximately eighty-five per cent of all criminal homicides are resolved. The victims of unresolved homicides I think of as the unruly dead; restless , dissatisfied, longing for release. In the hazy zone where wakefulness fades into sleep I can sometimes hear them whisper the names of their attackers. I lie awake, listening, hoping to catch a syllable, a phrase, straining to discern in that roll call of conspirators the name of one killer. Lorna Kepler's murder ended up affecting me that way.

Lorna Kepler was beautiful and wilful, a loner who couldn't resist flirting with danger. She had also been found dead in mysterious circumstances and her death pulls Kinsey Millhone into a netherworld of deception, betrayal and unavenged murder.

Paperback in good read condition with yellowing pages but not too bad still able to be read.
