β¦ Synopsis
PERISH was a finalist for the G. P. Putnam's Sons Sue Grafton Memorial Award.
Forensic investigator Maggie Gardiner always follows the rules. Detective Jack Renner doesn't believe in them . . .
In a mansion on the outskirts of Cleveland, a woman's body lies in a pool of blood. The victim is Joanna Moorehouse, founder of Sterling Financial. To crack the case, Maggie and Jack will have to infiltrate the cutthroat world of high-stakes finance. But every employee at Sterling Financial is hellbent on making a killing.
When a series of unrelated murders reveals disturbing evidence, only Maggie recognizes the handiwork of a killer who will continue killing until he is stopped. Burdened with unbearable secrets, Maggie must make an agonizing choice, while her instincts keep telling her: she's next.
