In this #1 New York Times bestselling thriller from an American author, Harlen Coben, a dead man's secrets fall to the hands of a vigilante antihero--drawing him down a dangerous road.
"Coben, as is he won't, raises moral dilemmas readers will enjoy chewing on and pulse-pounding action scenes will keep the pages at least semi-frantically turning."--Book Page
" Twisty--and we'd expect no less from the author of hot thrillers like Tell No One and Missing you."--AARP
Over twenty years ago, the heiress Patricia Lockwood was abducted during a robbery of her family's estate, then locked inside an isolated cabin for months. Patricia escaped but the items stolen from her family were never recovered.
Until now. On the Upper West Side, a recluse is found murdered in his penthouse apartment, alongside two objects of note: a stolen Vermeer painting and a leather suitcase bearing the initials WHL3. For the first time in years, the authorities have a lead -- not only on Patricia's kidnapping but also on another FBI cold case -- with painting and the suitcase both pointing them towards one man.
Windsor Horne Lockwood III or Win doesn't know how his suitcase and his family's stolen painting ended up with a dead man. But his interest is piqued, especially when the FBI tells him that the man who kidnapped his cousin was also behind an act of domestic terrorism--and that the conspirators may still be at large. The two cases have baffled the FBI for decades, but Win has three things the FBI doesn't: a personal connection to the case; ungodly torture; and his own unique brand of justice.
