Más información sobre el libro

Amos Decker, the FBI consultant with a perfect memory, returns to tackle a gruesome murder in a rapidly growing North Dakota oil town. Decker and his colleague Alex Jamison arrive in London, North Dakota, where the fracking boom has attracted many newcomers seeking fortune, but also brought a surge of crime, including drugs, property offenses, and now, murder. They are tasked with investigating the death of Irene Cramer, a young woman whose body was meticulously autopsied and discarded, revealing a series of unsettling details about the case. As they delve into Irene's life, they uncover that she led a double life: by night, a prostitute, and by day, a teacher for a local religious sect, which operates on land once owned by a mysterious government facility. The town is filled with ruthless business owners, dubious government officials, and religious outsiders, all intent on keeping their secrets hidden. With more murders occurring, Decker must rely on his exceptional memory and detective skills, along with an unexpected ally, to uncover the truth behind Cramer’s death and the dark forces at play before the town's situation spirals out of control.
