Descriere

What happened to her father that made him kill himself and abandon Nora and her sister?Heading to Detroit to try and find some answers about his life there, Nora expects to discover a reason behind his suicide.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

Growing up, Nora Watts knew only one parent—her father. When he killed himself, she denied her grief and carried on with her life. Now, a chance encounter with a veteran who knew him raises disturbing questions Nora can’t ignore—and dark emotions she can’t control. To make peace with the past, she must confront it.
Finding the truth about her father’s life and his violent death takes her from Vancouver to Detroit, where Sam Watts grew up. Thanks to a disastrous government policy starting in the 1950s, thousands of Canadian indigenous children like Sam were adopted out of their communities, many by American families. In the Motor City, Nora discovers that the circumstances surrounding Sam’s suicide are more unsettling than she’d imagined.
Back in the Pacific Northwest, former police detective turned private investigator Jon Brazuca is looking into the overdose death of a billionaire’s mistress. His search uncovers a ruthless opiate ring and a startling connection to Nora, the infuriatingly distant woman he’d once tried to befriend. He has no way to warn or protect her, because she’s become a ghost, vanishing completely off the grid.
Focused on the mysterious events of her father’s past and the clues they provide to her own fractured identity and that of her estranged daughter, Nora may not be able to see the danger heading her way until it’s too late. But it’s not her father’s old ties that could get her killed—it’s her own.

Recenzii

Praise for The Lost Ones: “Utterly compelling, rich with voice and psychological insight, populated with heartbreakingly real characters, The Lost Ones will stay with you for a long, long time after you finish the last page. Perhaps forever.” — Jeffery Deaver
“A brave, unflinching heroine and brave, unflinching writing add up to an extraordinary debut—highly recommended.” — Lee Child
“Suspenseful, atmospheric and often deeply moving, The Lost Ones features one of the most complicated and fascinating protagonists I’ve come across in a long time. I’d follow Nora Watts (and her dog Whisper) anywhere.” — Alison Gaylin
“Kamal laces her narrative with a palpable melancholy, effectively capturing the urban decay of Detroit while emphasizing the vibrancy and hope of the people who inhabit it. An explosive finale...sets the stage for more to come from this complicated, flawed, and utterly enthralling heroine. A stunning, emotionally resonant thriller.” — Kirkus Reviews (starred)
“Sheena Kamal is being hailed in the industry as the next Gillian Flynn.” — Irish Independent
