Derry nie je obyčajné malomesto. Pod jeho povrchom spí prastaré zlo. Vždy keď sa prebudí, na niekoľko rokov rozpúta v Derry a okolí smršť neopísateľných hrôz. Strašná sila, ktorú možno nazvať len To, ovláda obyvateľov, vraždí nevinné deti a zdá sa, že ju neuspokojí nič okrem najvyššej obete. Kto ju prinesie tentoraz? Skupinka priateľov, ktorí v Derry vyrástli, dnes žije roztrúsená vo všetkých kútoch sveta. Sú bohatí, úspešní aj slávni, ale nie sú šťastní. A najmä im chýba veľká časť spomienok na desivé udalosti z detstva. Kto im vymazal pamäť? Ak to chcú zistiť, musia sa opäť stretnúť s pradávnym zlom. Kedysi sa mu dokázali vzoprieť a prežiť. Ale dnes už nie sú deťmi a niečo podstatné, čo im kedysi pomohlo zahnať To, im chýba.

TWISTED is the second Petra Connor novel and a superb example of Jonathan Kellerman's mastery of the psychological thriller Detective Petra Connor is struggling with a baffling drive-past murder when Isaac Gomez, a young research prodigy, tells her he's found something she might want to see. His theory that there's a connection between six unsolved murders committed in the LAPD area over the past six years, all at around midnight on June 28, seems fanciful at first - but soon the links become clearer. Something evil has managed to conceal itself between the dry pages of the files: a series of killings so meticulously constructed that the mind behind them would have remained invisible without Isaac's sharp probing. And June 28 is just a month away - will Petra be able to stop the murderer from striking again?

One rainy morning Commissario Brunetti and Ispettore Vianello respond to a 911 call reporting a body floating near some steps on the Grand Canal. Reaching down to pull it out, Brunetti's wrist is caught by the silkiness of golden hair, and he sees a small foot - together he and Vianello lift a dead girl from the water. But, inconceivably, no one has reported a missing child, nor the theft of the gold jewellery that she carries. Brunetti is drawn into a search not only for the cause of her death but also for her identity, her family, and for the secrets that people will keep in order to protect their children - be they innocent or guilty. From the canals and palazzos of Venice to a Gypsy encampment on the mainland, Brunetti struggles with institutional prejudice and entrenched criminality to try to unravel the fate of the dead child.
