- fullDescription
- RCMP sergeant Ray Robertson is serving with the United Nations in Haiti, a land of brilliant color and vibrant life, Vodou and vast above-ground cemeteries. Ray's job is to train the local police and assist investigations. One call comes in from the home of a wealthy American businessman. The man came home to find his beautiful, young Haitian wife floating face down in the swimming pool. The American embassy and the Haitian police immediately arrest the gardener, and the case is closed. But Ray isn't so sure, and he keeps digging. Until one night he finds himself in a Vodou-saturated cemetery, surrounded by above-ground tombs and elaborate statuary, confronting a killer with nothing left to lose.

June 15, 2015
A Canadian Mountie seconded to the United Nations in Haiti steps uncomfortably outside his job description. Sgt. Ray Robertson is an adviser and mentor working with the national police force to help Haiti recover from its recent devastating earthquake. While he's attached to Agent Pierre Lamothe and his team, they're called to a gated mansion in one of the best neighborhoods of Port-au-Prince, where a woman has been found dead in the swimming pool. Steve Hammond is an American married to a beautiful woman with two young children. The official story is that his wife, Marie, slipped and hit her head on the pool before falling in. From the first, however, Robertson doesn't buy that scenario. A woman from the American embassy arranges for the body to be autopsied in Miami and, while she's at it, does her best to shut down the investigation. Robertson is locked out of the case when the gardener is arrested for killing Marie. Even though Robertson is no detective, his curiosity is aroused, and he grows more suspicious when one of the guards from the Hammond home is seen wearing an expensive watch. Despite threats from the embassy and a cold shoulder from the local police, he persists in his inquiries and comes up with some disturbing answers. Delany (Under Cold Stone, 2014, etc.) uses a slim and easily solved mystery to paint a thought-provoking portrait of post-quake Haiti.COPYRIGHT(2015) Kirkus Reviews, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
