Never has Mallory faced as many surprises as in the case before her now.
NYPD Detective Mallory and her partner are called to Winter House to investigate a simple case of an intruder killed by someone he was trying to rob. But nothing is as it seems–the intruder wasn’t stabbed by the pair of scissors sticking out of his chest, but by an ice pick. And Winter House isn’t just any house; the mansion on Central Park. The home owner turns out to be the most famous lost child in NYPD history, missing for almost sixty years, thought to have been kidnapped following the massacre of her family: five siblings, father, stepmother, nanny, and housekeeper -nearly the entire household wiped out… with an ice pick.
Nedda Winter, missing for 58 years reappears at the scene of the crime. Cleo and Lionel Winter are mystified by their sister Nedda’s return. They were certain they were the only survivors of that long-ago stabbing rampage. Mallory, working alongside sartorially challenged homicide detective Riker and psychologist Charles Butler, suspects the reason lies with Cleo’s ex-husband, Sheldon Smyth, a slick estate lawyer with exclusive access to the Winter family’s multimillion-dollar trust. But Smyth’s dubious deeds are just the tip of the ice pick in the hands of O’Connell, known for her idiosyncratic characters and labyrinthine plots
Filled with the intricate plotting and extraordinary characterization that are O’Connell’s hallmarks, Winter House is her most powerful-and most astonishing-novel yet.
It is my favorite book of the series.
