An attempt to apply linguistic methods to the structure of fiction. Fowler illustrates this approach with reference to a wide variety of novelists including Fielding, Sterne, Dickens, Thackeray, George Eliot and Hemingway.
Determined to find out what happened to her former deputy chief, Jack Fielding, murdered six months earlier, Kay Scarpetta travels to the Georgia Prison for Women, where an inmate has information not only on Fielding, but also on a string of grisly killings. The murder of an Atlanta family years ago, a young woman on death row, and the inexplicable deaths of homeless people as far away as California seem unrelated.

Family ties mean trouble, chains and fatal obligations. And when steeplechase jockey Kit Fielding comes to the aid of his twin sister and her husband, even death threatens.
When Marcy Taggart goes to Ireland after divorcing her husband of twenty-five years, a chance encounter catapults her entire life into turmoil. Years earlier, her daughter, Devon, disappeared in the icy waters of Georgian Bay after a canoeing accident, her body never recovered. But on a day trip to Cork, Marcy is certain she spots Devon walking down the street. When her daughter disappears into a crowd, Marcy begins a desperate search to find her - and to uncover the disturbing truth that might, in the end, be her only salvation. Exhilarating and engaging, this is Joy Fielding at her best - delivering a pulse-racing, tension-filled read.
