There's a whisper in the mists In Lisfenora, Ireland, a strange fog has rolled in off the Atlantic. Along with the fog comes tales of Grey Man, a predatory faery of local lore who snatches innocent souls into his deadly gloom. And with the mists come murder When a teenage boy dies in Detective Sergeant Danny Ahern's arms, Danny finds himself pursuing his own grey man, a killer who becomes more elusive the closer Danny gets to the truth. A mute woman may be the key to solving the murder and helping Danny heal his own broken life, but first she must unlock the memories from her past. Part psychological suspense, part mystery, Lisa Alber's haunting tale of family secrets and broken love won't let you go until the final twist. Praise: "A worthy successor to Kilmoon in tone, mood, complexity, and keen insight into human failures and triumphs."―Kirkus Reviews "Rich, dark, and complex―every aspect of Alber's second novel rises above the commonplace. The mystery's resolution is expertly teased from layers of motive, obligation, attraction and repulsion, all in a memorably atmospheric setting."―Sophie Littlefield, bestselling author of The Guilty One "Lisa Alber's mysteries are atmospheric―brooding, complex, and featuring enough twists and turns to keep you guessing."―Lori Rader-Day, Anthony Award-winning author of The Black Hour and Little Pretty Things
