About Atonement: An Evan Buckley Crime Thriller (Evan Buckley Thrillers)
Forty years ago a man was brutally gunned down in an unsolved bank robbery. When PI Evan Buckley takes on the impossible job of recovering a stolen religious icon, he soon comes up against a host of people hell-bent on keeping the truth buried. As everybody from the retired lead detective to a clandestine government agency to a ruthless mafia gang lies and deceives him, he's plagued by one inescapable question - why was a supposedly innocent man killed for no reason?As the killings continue after almost half a century, he's drawn ever-deeper into the world of the enigmatic woman at the heart of the mystery, a militant activist who fought against a forgotten war. There, he discovers that there are no limits to the horrific crimes men’s greed drives them to commit, not constrained by law or human decency.Caught up in a fateful convergence of his own troubled past and that of Avery Pentecost, a man who causes the grass to die beneath his feet, he struggles on in an attempt to atone for his untold sins, to do for another woman what he couldn’t do for his own lost wife.A breathtaking, twisty adventure, Atonement is the latest Evan Buckley mystery, one that you won’t be able to put down until you’ve turned the final page.
