In this New York Times bestseller, twenty-six renowned authors team up to create a first-rate serial thriller—a collaboration that combines the skills of today's greatest storytellers to produce one gripping murder mystery. “The lineup of writers who have contributed to this mystery is akin to the Murderers’ Row of the 1927 New York Yankees. There is not a weak spot in the bunch.” —David Baldacci, from the Introduction Sandra Brown. Faye Kellerman. Tess Gerritsen. J.A. Jance. Jeffery Deaver. John Lescroart. Kathy Reichs. Lisa Scottoline. Jeff Lindsay. These are only a handful of the names that make up the all-star lineup of authors behind No Rest for the Dead, a tale of vengeance, greed, and love that flows seamlessly, in the words of David Baldacci, “as it passes from one creator’s mind to the next.” When a ruthless curator at San Francisco’s McFall Art Museum is murdered, his wife is the primary suspect. She is tried, convicted, and executed. Ten years later, Jon Nunn, the detective who cracked the case, is convinced that the wrong person was put to death. With the help of the dead woman’s friend, he plans to finally uncover the truth. Solving this case may be Nunn’s last chance for redemption…but the shadowy forces behind this murder will stop at nothing to silence the past forever. Each of these bestselling writers brings his or her distinctive voice to the narrative, building the tension to a shocking, explosive finale. No Rest for the Dead is a thrilling, page-turning accomplishment that only today’s very best authors could achieve.
