內容簡介
內容簡介 作者二〇一四年榮獲義大利美國學院「羅馬獎」。在費城遭到毒品染指的社區,兩個曾經密不可分的姐妹彼此漸行漸遠:凱西成了受到毒癮箝制的單親媽媽,在街頭賣身;米琪則在同一街區執行警察勤務。她們不再說話,但米琪從未停止關心過自己的妹妹。有一天,凱西突然失蹤,米琪的轄區開始發生一連串凶殺案。米琪鍥而不捨想找到凶手和妹妹的下落。 Two sisters travel the same streets,though their lives couldn’t be more different. Then one of them goes missing. In a Philadelphia neighborhood rocked by the opioid crisis, two once-inseparable sisters find themselves at odds. One, Kacey, lives on the streets in the vise of addiction. The other, Mickey, walks those same blocks on her police beat. They don’t speak anymore, but Mickey never stops worrying about her sibling. Then Kacey disappears, suddenly, at the same time that a mysterious string of murders begins in Mickey’s district, and Mickey becomes dangerously obsessed with finding the culprit--and her sister--before it’s too late. Alternating its present-day mystery with the story of the sisters’ childhood and adolescence, Long Bright River is at once heart-pounding and heart-wrenching: a gripping suspense novel that is also a moving story of sisters, addiction, and the formidable ties that persist between place, family, and fate.
