Reseña del libro "Cardinal: Forty Words for Sorrow (The John Cardinal Crime Series)"

Now a major television series, CARDINAL.When four teenagers go missing in the small northern town of Algonquin Bay,the extensive police investigation comes up empty. Everyone is ready to give upexcept Detective John Cardinal, an all-too-human loner whose persistence onlyserves to get him removed from homicide. Haunted by a criminal secret in his ownpast and hounded by a special investigation into corruption on the force, Cardinal is on the brink of losing his career--and his family. Then the mutilated body of thirteen-year-old Katie Pine is pulled out of anabandoned mineshaft. And only Cardinal is willing to consider the horrible truth:that this quiet town is home to the most vicious of serial killers. The case as itunfolds proves eerily reminiscent of the Moors murders in Britain, as anunassuming young man and his belligerently loyal girlfriend scout young victimsfor their macabre games. With the media, the provincial police and his owndepartment questioning his every move, Cardinal follows increasingly tenuousthreads towards the unthinkable. Time isn't only running out for him, but foranother young victim, tied up in a basement wondering when and how his captorswill kill him.
