But Holloway is still carrying a case with him, the brutal murder of his wife — the only case he never solved. If only Dyle hadn't loved his wife so much. If only he didn't carry her memory with him.

But the slaughter makes no more sense than the death of his wife, and the clues are equally bizarre, equally impossible to reconcile with reality....
