Having returned to Lake Tahoe after a stint in California--where her love life took a tumble--Nina Reilly is getting back to work, investigating an unsolved murder that happened outside a Tahoe casino two years before. As she tries to unravel the mystery of that brutal night, a harrowing journey begins--one that takes her from the dark underworld of Tahoe's casinos to the halls of a prestigious East Coast university to Europe and an emotional reunion with Kurt Sc the father of her teenage son.
As old feelings are rekindled, Nina's case turns violent.... Everyone has something to hide--the brilliant but unstable mathematics student who has made an astonishing discovery, the owner of a motel where the shooting took place, and the shooter, who has turned the whole case into a gigantic lie....finalement assez captivant.

J'ai découvert une boutique d'artisanat ''Le Cotillon'' à Sutton, sur la rue Pine où on trouve tellement de choses : jouets, Légo, encadrement, toiles, peinture, laine, métiers, tapisseries, boutons, rubans, etc., etc.,des choses vraiment originales, je l'appelle ''La Caverne d'Ali-Baba'', quand je vais à Sutton je vais faire un tour à cette boutique. (Merci Michèle); et à Knowlton il y une autre boutique d'artisanat avec un inventaire assez impressionnant mais différents : Smugglebuffs . je viens d'acheter deux couronnes de vigne.

It's fire season, and the hills of Los Angeles are burning. When police and fire department personnel rush door to door in a frenzied evacuation effort, they discover the week-old corpse of an apparent suicide. But the gunshot victim is less gruesome than what they find in his lap: a photo album of seven brutally murdered young women -- one per year, for seven years. And when the suicide victim is identified as a former suspect in one of the murders, the news turns Elvis Cole's world upside down.
Three years earlier Lionel Byrd was brought to trial for the murder of a female prostitute named Yvonne Bennett. A taped confession coerced by the police inspired a prominent defense attorney to take Byrd's case, and Elvis Cole was hired to investigate. It was Cole's eleventh-hour discovery of an exculpatory videotape that allowed Lionel Byrd to walk free. Elvis was hailed as a hero.
But the discovery of the death album in Byrd's lap now brands Elvis as an unwitting accomplice to murder. Captured in photographs that could only have been taken by the murderer, Yvonne Bennett was the fifth of the seven victims -- two more young women were murdered after Lionel Byrd walked free. So Elvis can't help but wonder -- did he, Elvis Cole, cost two more young women their lives?Shut out of the investigation by a special LAPD task force determined to close the case, Elvis Cole and Joe Pike desperately fight to uncover the truth about Lionel Byrd and his nightmare album of death -- a truth hidden by lies, politics, and corruption in a world where nothing is what it seems to be.
Chasing Darkness is a blistering thriller from the bestselling author who sets the standard for intense, powerful crime writing. Pas si mal...
