About this ebook

FINALIST - 2020 Independent Audiobook Award, Mystery category

 

Never try to catch a falling knife.

 

Ex-NYPD detective Evan Adair has finally figured out what's good for him: to step back and allow death its dominion. The truth, after all, doesn't bring the dead back. It's a lesson Adair has had to learn the hard way.

 

But when a brilliant young man dies by violence – the victim of an apparently impossible crime – the case calls out to Adair like a siren's song. He can't stay away, not even when it threatens to drag him down into the chasm of his own grief.

 

The mystery draws Adair deep inside the worlds of high finance and high-stakes biotech, lands full of strange fauna and complicated lies. The weapons of choice look like numbers and dollar signs – but the blood they draw runs red. Red as the blood that haunts Evan Adair's dreams.

Author

Judith Deborah

I'm Judith Deborah, and I'm a proud indie author. I was born and raised just outside New York City and retain a New Yorker's sensibility in most respects, though life has taken me quite some distance from midtown. The girl's out of New York, but New York isn't out of the girl.  I’m a Duke and Oxford grad and a great admirer of people who do things I could never do in a million years, like win ski-jumping competitions and sing really well. I believe a bone-dry martini is the perfect cocktail and that P.G. Wodehouse was a genius on a par with Shakespeare. I’m an expatriate, a mother of three, and an enthusiastic practitioner of compound archery and complicated knitting.
