A rural reporter takes in a troubled teen and is drawn into dark family secrets in this mystery from the bestselling author of the "bonecracking" Deadline (New York Times Book Review).
There ain't no rest for the wicked . . .
In Home Body, the eighth Jack McMorrow Mystery, Jack has reformed his bad boy ways and settled into seeming domestic tranquility. But the quiet life is short-lived when Jack rescues a homeless teen from a brutal gang beating. This gesture rewards him with yet another descent into violence, murder, and the dark underworld of at-risk kids living on the street.
As Jack prepares for the birth of his child, his efforts to save somebody else's child fail, and he must track down a stalker. Who is the predator and who is the prey in a world where no one can be trusted? It's a high stakes game of hide-and-seek––one that Jack can't afford to lose.
