"I'm in trouble, Liz. I've uncovered something.... They're watching...." That panicked message on her answering machine is the last time Liz Ames hears from her sister Rachel, pastor of Paradise Christian Church in Key West, Florida. Compelled to uncover the truth about her sister's disappearance, she heads to Key West. Within hours of her arrival a successful banker jumps to his death. Then a teenage girl whom Rachel was counseling is found brutally murdered. The ritualistic style of the killing is hauntingly similar to that used by the notorious "New Testament" serial killer--now on death row. Could the teen's murder be related to Rachel's disappearance? Is a copycat killer at work? And why do the police refuse to help? For answers, Liz turns to Rick Wells, a former Miami cop who worked the fringes of the "New Testament" investigation. Together they peel away layers of deception to reveal a terrifying adversary--and the unspeakable evil at the heart of this island paradise.

Suddenly, the woman with no permanent ties finds herself almost wishing for one... Artist Ashton Archer knows his brother isn't capable of violence--against himself or others. He recruits Lila, the only eyewitness, to help him uncover what happened. Chalking up their intense attraction to the heat of the moment, Lila agrees to help Ash in trying to find out who murdered his brother and why. From the penthouses of Manhattan to grand Italian villas, their investigation draws them into a rarified circle where priceless antiques are bought, sold, gambled away, and stolen; where what you possess is who you are; and where what you desire becomes a deadly obsession...

Deux rencontres ont changé le cours de l'existence de Kristin Kimball, journaliste new-yorkaise trentenaire : l'une avec Mark, jeune fermier bio compliqué, exaspérant mais ô combien séduisant ; l'autre avec le travail de la terre dont elle a fait, contre toute attente, son métier. Ce livre est le récit de ces deux histoires d'amour...La terre prend racine en vous ; à côté, tout le reste paraît dérisoire. Vos champs deviennent un univers à part entière. Et vous vous rendez compte que c'est au royaume des magnétoscopes numériques, des tours de bureaux, des fast-foods, du chauffage central et de l'air conditionné, dans ce pays où presque tout le monde vit aujourd'hui dans le confort, que vous étiez privé de quelque chose : du plaisir du désir, de l'effort et de la difficulté, du sens de l'accomplissement.
