The fantastic follow-up to CRIME SCENE by masters of the psychological thriller genre Jonathan and Jesse Kellerman. A MEASURE OF DARKNESS features deputy coroner Clay Edison in another gripping case . . .

Clay Edison gets the call in the middle of the night and it’s a bad one. A party in Oakland, feuding neighbours, a wild crowd in the street. Two guns, firing at random, spreading chaos and death. Nobody knows the body count yet. It’s going to be a long night for Clay – longer than he ever could have imagined.

Because when the dust settles, there’s a victim who can’t be accounted for. A young woman, strangled instead of shot, without ID and a stranger to all. Clay’s journey to give her a name and bring her justice will lead him into a bizarre world where right and wrong begin to blur.

If you love the Alex Delaware series, and are a fan of Harlan Coben and Michael Connelly, you will be hooked by A MEASURE OF DARKNESS.
