Boston police officer D. D. Warren is back in Gardner’s latest heart-pounding thriller. A family is found brutally murdered in their Boston-area home, and all clues point to the barely alive father. But why would he kill his family? When another family is found dead, and the police end up at a locked-down psychiatric center for young children during their search for the possible killers, new theories begin to trouble Officer Warren. Could young children, in the grips of severe mental anguish, be the killers?Gardner tackles a disturbing plot that raises the uncomfortable subject of children capable of extreme acts of violence against their own families. Yet the subject is never sensationalized, and fits into the overall story she is trying to tell. Readers will be kept guessing almost to the end in this psychological page-turner. For fans of Harlan Coben and James Patterson.
