But the most unsettling connection of all is the one that ties the tormented Sparks family to Peter Decker's own -- and the secrets shared by a renegade Catholic priest.and Decker's wife, Rina Lazarus.

Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. 1st Edition. 400 page. Royal octavo (9 1/2" x 6 1/4") bound in original publisher's quarter white paper with blue lettering to spine over yellow boards in original pictorial jacket. First edition. A man walks into a trendy Los Angeles restaurant -- a disgruntled ex-employee with an automatic weapon -- and seconds later, thirteen people are dead and thirty-two more have been wounded.

But, though eyewitnesses saw only the lone gunman -- who apparently took his own life after his bloody work was done -- evidence suggests more than one weapon was fired. It is a disturbing inconsistency that sends Decker racing headlong into a sordid, labyrinthine world of Southern California money and power, on an investigation that threatens to destroy his reputation and his career.
