PARTING SHOT

A keep-you-guessing thriller about a family with a dark secret hiding in a town with no patience for lies.

If you made a mistake that took someone''s life, you''d remember it . . . wouldn''t you?

After a tragedy rocks the community of Promise Falls, Cal Weaver is asked to investigate the threats being made to the accused''s family. He''s heard all about it on the news: the young man who drank too much, stole a Porsche and killed a girl, and who claimed afterwards not to remember a single thing. The whole town is outraged that he got off lightly, but for reasons Cal can''t explain he accepts the job. Then Cal finds himself caught up in a vicious revenge plot, chasing someone set on delivering retribution. In Cal''s experience, it''s only ever a matter of time before threats turn into action . . .

A gripping thriller packed with scandal in a small town, from the master of the twist you never saw coming - international bestseller, Linwood Barclay.
