Blood Memory

Blood Memory

by Greg Iles (Author)

Synopsis

Cat Ferry is a tough woman, but she's way out on the edge. She's been fighting a drink problem for some time and she's not necessarily winning. She's still haunted by the mysterious murder of her father. Her relationship with the detective is not going anywhere while he refuses to leave his wife. And now she's pregnant. Cat is a forensic odontologist. Her specialist knowledge of dentistry means that she is used by the New Orleans Police Department to analyze the bite marks that are often left on victims of brutal attacks. Now she is helping Sean to investigate a particularly savage series of murders, but something in the case is calling to Cat, something that seems to connect with her own, troubled life. The only chance Cat Ferry has to survive is to face down her demons, and confront a mystery of murder, corruption and evil that has entwined itself around her life like a snake from the swamps beyond the great house.

Media Reviews
'Iles's way of telling the story lifts him clear of the pack ... into a different league. I guess that makes BLOOD MEMORY what publishers call 'the breakthrough novel' - the book that finally gets a writer with a reasonable following noticed by a much bigger readership.' -- Observer 20050130 'One of America's top new crime writers ... the classic Iles combination of complex plotting and high drama.' -- Observer 20050313 'Edge-of-the-seat thrills all the way' -- Irish Independent 20050313 'Deftly navigating the perilous waters between science and spirituality, Greg Iles has crafted an alarming, believable, and utterly consuming tale of good and evil, of destiny and choice. The Footprints of God is my favorite kind of novel--one that educates while it entertains. Ambitious in its scope and superbly satisfying in its execution, this story resonates long after the final page is turned.' -- Dan Brown, author of The Da Vinci Code, on 20050313 'Greg Iles is a superb writer.' -- Linda Fairstein on Dark Matter 20050313
