A horrible crime from her past has haunted Eliza Benedict since she was a teenager, but she has managed to heal many of her wounds and has built a good life for herself. Now however, just as the madman who held her captive for six harrowing weeks is about to be executed, he contacts her. If it is forgiveness he wants, Eliza wonders if she could grant it to him. And Eliza has unanswered questions of her own--such as why the serial killer kept her alive when he killed so many others. Against this frightening backdrop, Laura Lippman carefully explores her characters motivations and pathologies, eschewing cheap action for thoughtful psychological investigations.
