Z pochmurného dětství se zrodilo nezlomné spojenectví. Newyorský policista Joe Lucchesi přijíždí se svou francouzskou manželkou Annou a synem Shaunem do klidné irské pobřežní vesnice Mountcannonu ve Waterfordském hrabství, aby se zotavil po neúspěšné policejní akci na Manhattanu, kdy matka a její osmiletá dcera zahynuly strašnou smrtí rukou únosce. Joeova žena, jejíž profesí je design interiérů, renovuje v Irsku starý maják, jejich syn Shaun chodí do místní střední školy a má milou přítelkyni Katii Lawsonovou. Když Katie jednou v noci zmizí a je o pár týdnů později nalezena mrtvá, celý Mountcannon je šokován. Joea pronásleduje jeho newyorská minulost: Duke Rawlins je v Irsku a touží se pomstít za zabití svého přítele. Začíná se odvíjet stylový, velmi dobře vystavěný a poutavý thriller spolu s úchvatným portrétem současného života na irském venkově. Je to kniha, kterou občas prostě není možné odložit. Alex Barclayová ve svém pochmurném příběhu pojímá zápletku a jednotlivé postavy opravdu působivě.

Cesta dovnitř vede… ven už ne. Vrah vyhledává své oběti v jejich vlastních domovech, děsivě je mučí a pak zanechá jejich bezvládné tělo v předsíni, kde je najdou jejich milovaní… Zprvu se zdá, že vraždy spolu navzájem nesouvisejí, a nikdo téměř neuvažuje o tom, že by mohlo jít o činy masového vraha. Ale vraždění neustává. Detektiv Newyorského policejního oddělení Joe Lucchesi se s jistým váháním ujímá vedení tohoto významného případu. Bojuje sice s fyzickou bolestí a napětím doma i ve své skupině vyšetřovatelů, ale pomalu a s obtížemi postupuje kupředu.
