Sunday Night ha chiuso: basta con l'esercito, basta con la polizia. I fallimenti sono stati troppi e le cicatrici da curare sono ben più profonde di quelle visibili. Un giorno, però, è costretta a lasciare il suo ritiro su Goat Island, in South Carolina, a causa di una visita di una persona cara e di un attentato dinamitardo che ha colpito una scuola ebraica. Le vittime aspettano giustizia, e c'è una ragazza scomparsa, forse in mano a terroristi fanatici. Questo caso sembra fatto su misura per Sunnie Night, se accetterà di diventare investigatrice privata. Così, l'ex addestratrice dei Marines inizia una frenetica caccia all'uomo che la porterà dalle paludi del South Carolina alle coste della California. Una danza pericolosa, una guerra contro avversari sconosciuti e senza scrupoli. Finché avrà anche solo una possibilità di salvare Stella Bright, Sunnie sarà in prima linea. Questa volta, non c'è solo il profumo dei soldi o l'adrenalina in gioco; deve essere pronta. In un'avventura dura e affascinante, l'autrice ci presenta un'altra faccia di Temperance Brennan: una donna cinica, risoluta, abile con le armi e con un passato che la tormenta, lasciandole fragilità profonde. Una nuova eroina e un universo letterario inedito, per immergersi nella scrittura magnetica della regina del thriller.
