A Mystery
by Kathleen George
The new book in Kathleen George's stunning Pittsburgh-set police procedural series begins when a young mother dies in a hit-and-run accident caused by two young brothers. Desperate and afraid, Jack and Ryan Rutter flee to Sugar Lake, the summer community where they vacationed as children. As Detectives Colleen Greer and Richard Christie search for the brothers, Jack and Ryan create a terrifying hostage situation. As fast-paced and brilliantly plotted as the book that earned her an Edgar nomination, Hideout is a riveting police procedural like no other.
"Starred Review. Edgar-nominated George's (The Odds) latest entry plays to her strength: psychological character study. Once again she explores what happens when kids are forced to make their own way in a complex world. " - Library Journal
"Starred Review. Told in lean, efficient prose, this is a top-notch, emotionally satisfying police procedural." - Publishers Weekly
"A winning combination of nuanced character study and expertly plotted, nitty-gritty police procedural." - Booklist
"Cops getting territorial and sexually frisky... play second string to Jack, who's caught up in trying to redeem his brother, and Addie, who makes a mean spaghetti sauce." - Kirkus Reviews
