Ghostheart
by R.J. Ellory
Annie O'Neill has it all: a cozy Manhattan apartment, a beautiful
bookshop and a network of supportive friends. But at the heart of her
life is a hole—a place vacated by her father when he died in her
childhood. So when a mysterious man named Forrester enters the shop and
claims to be her father's oldest friend she jumps at the chance to find
out more of her own past. But Forrester's not being free with the
answers she needs. He's much more interested in telling her a story
about a ruthless ganglord and a fifty-year-old betrayal. A betrayal that
she will realize far too slowly, has something very much to do with
her.
