13.5by Nevada Barr - SIGNED FIRST EDITION BOOKSee all titles by Nevada Barr.
In 1971, the state of Minnesota was rocked by the "Butcher Boy"
incident, as coverage of a family brutally murdered by one of their own
swept across newspapers and TV screens nationwide.
Now, in
present-day New Orleans, Polly Deschamps finds herself at another
lonely crossroads in her life. No stranger to tragedy, Polly was a
runaway at the age of fifteen, escaping a nightmarish Mississippi
childhood. Lonely, that is, until she encounters architect
Marshall Marchand. Polly finds him attractive, charming, and
intelligent. Marshall, a lifelong bachelor, spends most of his time
with his brother Danny. When Polly's two young daughters from her
previous marriage are likewise taken with Marshall, she marries him.
However, as Polly begins to settle into her new life, she becomes
uneasy about her husband's increasing dark moods, fearing that Danny
may be influencing Marshall in ways she cannot understand. Bit by bit, details emerge that
connect the Marchands in some way to the 30-year-old unsolved
Minnesota murders. To save her marriage and perhaps her own life, Polly
must ferret out the submerged truth about the man she loves.
