Book Description
================
Bill Pronzini is crime-writing royalty. His more than 80 published novels
have won or been nominated for Edgar, Hammett, Anthony, Shamus, and
Macavity awards - a clean sweep of the crime fiction awards field -
and received rave reviews from critics. He crafts masterful stories,
often from multiple perspectives, in which the human condition is on
full display.
The Violated is no exception. In Echo Park, in the small town of Santa
Rita, California, the mutilated body of Martin Torrey is found by two
passersby. A registered sex offender, Torrey has been a suspect in a
string of recent rapes, and instant suspicion for his murder falls on
the relatives and friends of the women attacked. Police chief Griffin
Kells and detective Robert Ortiz are under increasing pressure from
the public and from a mayor demanding results in a case that has no
easy solution. Pronzini cleverly unfolds the case through alternating
perspectives - Martin Torrey's wife, caught between her grief and the
fear her husband was guilty; the outraged husbands of the women violated;
the enterprising editor of the local paper; the mayor concerned most
with his own ratings; the detectives, often spinning in circles - until
a surprising break leads to a completely unexpected conclusion. The
Violated is Bill Pronzini at the height of his storytelling powers.
