City of Drowned Souls
A Catalonian cop contends with a run of brutal break-ins while searching for a missing child in this crime thriller by the author of City of Buried Ghosts. Detective Elisenda Domènech has had a tough few years. The loss of her daughter and a team member; the constant battles against colleagues and judges; the harrowing murder investigations . . . But it’s about to get much worse. When the son of a controversial local politician goes missing at election time, Elisenda is put on the case. They simply must solve it. Only the team also must deal with a spate of horrifically violent break-ins—people are being brutalized in their own homes and the public demands answers. Could there be a connection? With the body count threatening to increase and her place in the force on the line, the waters are rising . . . Be careful not to drown. The stunning final installment of the gripping Elisenda Domènech crime thrillers, for readers of Ian Rankin, Henning Mankell, and Andrea Camilleri.
