Sacred

by Dennis Lehane

Grief-stricken over the accidental death of her mother and the impending death of her father, Desiree Stone has been missing for three weeks - and so has the first investigator her father hired to look for her. And when the dying billionaire hires Boston detectives Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennaro to continue the search for his missing daughter, they find that nothing is remotely what it seems. As they are led down a trail of half-truths and corruption into a dark and terrifying world, the more they realise that on this case, any wrong step will certainly be their last.
