Another superior thriller from New York Times bestselling author, Dennis Lehane, the bestselling and accalimed author of Mystic River, Shutter Island, and Gone, Baby, Gone.
A beautiful, grief-stricken woman has vanished without a trace. So has the detective hired to find her. And a lot of money...
Enter tough-nosed private investigators Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennaro. Rooted in the streets of blue-collar Dorchester, they've seen it all – and survived. But this case leads them into unexpected territory: a place of lies and corruption, where trusting anyone could get them killed, and where nothing is sacred.

This compelling and fast-paced thriller begins when dying billionaire Trevor Stone hires Boston private detectives Patrick Kenzie and Angela Genaro to find his missing daughter. Grief-stricken over the accidental death of her mother and the impending death of her father, Desiree Stone has been missing for three weeks. So has the first investigator Stone hired to find her: Jay Becker, Patrick's mentor.
As Patrick and Angie begin their search, they are led down a trial of half-truths and corruption into a world in which a therapeutic organization may be fronting for a dangerous and seductive cult, a high-tech private investigation firm may be covering up lethal crimes, and a stolen cache of millions in illegal funds may be tied to both disappearances and a tanker full of heroin.
Nothing is remotely what is seems as the detectives travel from the windblown streets of Boston to the rum-punch sunsets of Florida's Gulf Coast and back again, searching for a woman and a man who could be saints or sinners, victims or victimizers, alive or dead. And the more Patrick and Angie discover, the more they realize that on this case, any wrong step will certainly be their last.
Snappy dialogue, explosive action scenes, and original characters have become Dennis Lehane's trademarks. And with Sacred, Lehane confirms his status as today's hottest young author of first-rate mysteries that are also smartly written literary novels.
