From Edgar Award–winning author Jan Burke, the first in the thrilling "first-rate series" (The Washington Post Book World) featuring investigative reporter and female sleuth Irene Kelly who, after her best friend and fellow journalist is killed by a hidden bomb in a package, begins to pursue the long-unsolved murder of an unidentified young woman in Southern California.

For thirty-five years the identity of the dismembered woman found under the Las Piernas pier has remained a mystery. What secret did she take to her grave? Southern California reporter Irene Kelly has uncovered a maze of forensic records and confidential files that suggest a motive far more sinister than anyone imagined. The discovery has brought her close to homicide detective Frank Harriman, and closer still to exposing a killer who will resort to anything to keep his secrets buried—and Irene silenced forever.
