He s the perfect killer. Unstoppable. Untraceable. He thinks. CHICAGO, 1931. Harper Curtis, a violent drifter, stumbles on a house with a secret as shocking as his own twisted nature - it opens onto other times. He uses it to stalk his carefully chosen shining girls through the decades - and cut the spark out of them. It s not my fault. It s yours. You shouldn t shine. You shouldn t make me do this. CHICAGO, 1992. They say what doesn t kill you makes you stronger. Tell that to Kirby Mazrachi, whose life was shattered after a brutal attempt to murder her. Still struggling to find the attacker, Kirby s only ally is Dan, an ex - homicide reporter who covered the case and now might be falling in love with her. As Kirby investigates, she finds the other girls - the ones who didn t make it. The evidence is ... impossible. But for a girl who should be dead, impossible doesn t mean it didn t happen ... 'strong contender for the role of this summer s universal beach read ... [an] expert hair - raiser ... loaded with acrobatic twists'.
