Fault Tree by Michaela Thompson
A Suspense Thriller
Publisher: booksBnimble
Price: $0.99 (as of 03/10/14 02:00 PM ET)
"Placing blame," thinks Marina Robinson, "is my life's work. And why?" There's a lot in her past to account for — nightmares and terrors, crimes and betrayals that happened half a world away, ten years go. Now she's an engineer with a great job. She's a failure analyst, an investigator who figures out what causes accidents, and she's working on her most fascinating case — the fatal crash of a roller coaster — when suddenly the phone rings. And her world tilts …
The elusive, unidentified caller can be only one person — Catherine, her beloved younger sister who supposedly died in a fire ten years ago. Once again — for the moment abandoning her case — Marina is inexorably drawn back to India, the country that seduced her so long ago in so many ways, where something unspeakable happened to a child, and where she herself participated in misdeeds so shocking she can't forgive herself. She starts by tracking Catherine's lost lover, Nagarajan, the irresistibly charismatic guru under whose spell Catherine fell those many years ago, a man so dangerous, so full of hubris he took his name from Indian snake gods, and who at times seemed more serpent than human. But who is also reportedly dea — a suicide in a jail cell.
Thus begins an odyssey of fear and danger — far from dead, Nagarajan seems to be everywhere, and so do his disciples (at least those who haven't gone mad from guilt). Nowhere, it seems, is Marina safe, nor is anyone who knows anything about the young victim of Nagarajan's atrocities. Wherever she turns, the path seems strewn with fresh bodies. And just when the jig seems up, Marina calls on her skills as a failure analyst to pull off a surprise …
