Facts lie . . . Two decades after the murder that shattered her world, FBI agent and forensic artist Sydney Fitzpatrick confronts her father's killer face to face. But the inmate who's scheduled to be executed for the crime is not what she expected. Heightening Sydney's unease, she receives a photograph sent to her by a man just prior to his suicide, causing her to question everything she believed about her father. Now she wants the truth—no matter where it's hidden, no matter how painful . . . or dangerous. But Sydney Fitzpatrick is about to trespass on sacred ground. And being a federal agent will offer her no security or shelter if it's her own government that wants her dead.
I liked that this book was set in SF, since that's where I live. This is the first in a new series about an FBI agent. In this book, she tries to solve her father's death 20 yrs ago, and gets caught into a consipracy web. It was good. But not great. I think I've been reading some very good police mystery type books lately, and so this one just paled in comparison. There was nothing bad about it, it just didn�t have that 'grab me' factor..the characters and the plot didn�t pull me in. I finished it to find out what happens, not because I was enjoying it so much I couldn�t stop reading it. i probably wont read the rest of the series.
