Detective Inspector Brian McDone has a secret, and it is tearing him apart …

A year has passed since the shocking conclusion of the Ritual case. Brian is constantly looking over his shoulder, living in fear of his actions catching up with him. But time has progressed, and it seems like recent history is dead and buried.

But the perils of police duty have no regard for Brian's personal troubles. A girl is found dead, her body floating in a water tank atop a seedy Preston hotel. The death is dismissed as suicide. A tragic accident.

But Brian has been on the job long enough to know when something isn't right. Especially when he discovers there's no way the girl got onto the hotel roof without special security codes.

As he digs deeper into the case despite a staggering lack of evidence, Brian grows more and more convinced that something much darker than suicide is at play. And that darkness might just swallow him and those he loves up completely …

Fifteen years later, a new killer arrives in Christchurch, and he has a list of people who were involved in Jessica's murder case, one of whom is the unfortunate Dr. Stanton, a man with three young girls. If Tate is going to help them, he has to find the connection between the killer, the Laughterhouse, and the city's suddenly growing murder rate. And he needs to figure it out fast, because Stanton and his daughters have been kidnapped, and the doctor is being forced to make an impossible decision: which one of his daughters is to die first.

Recovering from the aftermath of a case that left his partner dead, Billy is back in Memphis and drawn into an ever-widening murder mystery that focuses on a disgraced major league baseball player, two legendary blues musicians on the lam, a straight-arrow cop tortured by her guilty conscience, and two iconic civil rights warriors with secrets so dark they'll shock the nation.

Detective Billy Able is at a crossroads. His previous case left him questioning everything he believes about his abilities as a cop and a friend, yet he's unable to turn off instincts he's honed after a decade on the force.

After he stops a crime from being committed, he finds himself embroiled in an even bigger scandal — a murder connected to a series of crimes dating back to the civil rights movement. Billy investigates and uncovers secrets so layered he can barely keep the truth from the lies. And Frankie Malone, the female cop on the case, is hiding something big, but is it connected to the investigation? With the help of a Santerián priest, Billy's search for the truth leads him deep into the underbelly of Memphis' past. But will he make it out alive?

Search for monsters long enough and you might become one …

Thirty years ago Jacob Vance and Raymond Turner committed a gruesome crime that shocked a small West Virginia town. Only nine years old themselves, they kidnapped and murdered four-year-old Josh Baker.

The two boys were quickly arrested, tried and convicted, but were released after serving only eight years in a juvenile detention facility. Because of the heinousness of their crime and the town's thirst for retribution, the government gave Vance and Turner new identities and relocated them to parts unknown.

Now, the victim's father has hired Finn Harding to find his son's killers so he can levy the justice that was denied so long ago. Along the way, Finn clashes with a tenacious US Marshal determined to protect the killers' new identities and crosses paths with an infamous triggerman hired to do what the courts didn't.

What begins as a typical job for Finn quickly spirals into a moral struggle between revenge and forgiveness as he learns details about the lives Vance and Turner have been living.

As he fights with his conscience, Finn learns that monsters truly exist, you can't hide from your past, and some cases should stay buried.
