Over dit e-boek
A Florida cop with a connection to the dead investigates the murder of a monstrous woman in this "edgy police drama" by the Edgar Award-winner ( New York Times Book Review).
When Harry Doyle was ten years old, he was murdered by his mentaly ill mother—and brought back to life by two Tampa cops. Twenty years later he has dedicated his life to putting killers behind bars as a homicide detective who has the unwanted ability to hear the postmortem whispers of murder victims. Dubbed "The Dead Detective" by his fellow cops, Doyle now faces his most difficult case—a beautiful murder victim who was a notorious child molester. It is a case that will shake Harry to his very core.
A former investigative reporter, William Heffernan is a three-time nominee for the Pulitzer Prize. His other crime novels include The Corsican, The Dinosaur Club, and the Edgar Award-winner, Tarnished Blue.
" The Dead Detective is a meaty story that offers an intriguing and conflicted protagonist, a darkly fascinating victim, solid police procedural detail, a knowing look at the Tampa Bay area and its politics, an unlikely murderer, and a creepy denouement that hints that Harry will be back."— Booklist
