87e District: Volume 8 (87th Precinct, #47, #48, #49, #50, #51)

Dans le quartier noir de Calusa, sur la côte ouest de la Floride, l'avocat Matthew Hope est grièvement blessé par balles à la sortie d'un bar. Qui a tiré ces coups de feu ? Avec qui Hope avait-il rendez-vous ? Tandis qu'il est plongé dans le coma, ses collègues, le détective Chambers, l'inspecteur Bloom et son associée Toots Kiley, sont bien décidés à tirer au clair cette tentative d'assassinat. Leur enquête les mène à la rencontre du cirque Steadman & Roeger, et au cœur de sombres histoires. Maria, qui a quitté la troupe après le suicide de sa mère, Willa, la " naine amuseuse ", reste persuadée que celle-ci a été assassinée. Mais que penser des convictions d'une jeune femme cocaïnomane qui camoufle son petit trafic de drogue derrière un commerce de coiffures postiches ? Que penser de son accusation contre Davey Sheed, le " roi des bêtes féroces ", lorsqu'on découvre qu'il était l'amant de la mère et de la fille ? Hope aurait-il obtenu des révélations de la bouche du mystérieux Peter Torrance, l'ex-époux de Willa venu réclamer sa part d'héritage ? Quant à la belle et sulfureuse Jeannie, devenue la riche Mme Andrew Byrd, elle n'est pas à l'abri de tout soupçon.

Blanche Comme Une Petite Fille (Matthew Hope, #11)

Trois souris aveugles

They never saw their executioner. Because each victim had this in common: they were blind. Steve Carella, a weary detective very much in love with his deaf wife, is stymied in a hunt that began when a Vietnam veteran, his sight taken in war, was found with his head nearly separated from his body. But as the bizarre killing spree goes on, Carella begins to look into the first victim's dreams. And what he sees is a panorama of war, sexuality, secrets, and torment -- and one man's pure, blind rage...

Ça Fait Une Paye! (87th Precinct, #34)

Envoyez la fumée!

Mary, Mary

"Bloody palmprints. He would always remember seeing first the bloody prints, one on each side of the glass-paneled doors. And then the doors swinging open and the girl spilling into the room. Arms wide, hands imploring . . . blue dress torn open over white blood-smeared bra, she lurched toward the muster desk, beseeching Kling to help, for God's sake, help."The girl was Patricia Lowery, fifteen years old. She was the lucky one. Soon after, they found her cousin, Muriel Stark, seventeen, lying in a doorway, her body ripped with knife wounds. Hysterically, Patricia talked to Detectives Steve Carella and Bert Kling of the 87th Precinct, telling her brutal story of molestation and murder. The man was tall, dark-haired, blue-eyed, she said; he had a knife blade four inches long, she would never forget what he looked like, what he made them do.Immediately, Kling and Carella set out to find the killer, launching interrogations, file searches, laboratory analyses -- all the weapons of investigation at their command. The twisting, blood-spotted trail leads them deep into the warped world of the sex offender. Then, click. Tall, dark hair, blue eyes, phony alibi. And a positive identification from Patricia: "I said I'd never forget."There's only one problem. He's the wrong man.
