      About This Book

      An Edgar Award nominee's "best [mystery] yet—an understated small town tragedy handled in his level—dead-level—fashion" (Kirkus Reviews).

       


      A young college student is found murdered in her dorm room, a blank sheet of typing paper on her stomach. The only thing chief of police Mario Balzic knows is that the girl was lonely, a nearly friendless orphan who was so quiet, so unassuming, that no one at school knew much about her. But everyone has secrets. And if anyone is going to find out hers, it's Balzic—Rocksburg, Pennsylvania's most discerning detective.
