In the Lake of the Moon

The first five photographs were perplexing; but the sixth - the sixth seemed to be a chronicle of a death foretold.Houston homicide detective Stuart Haydon opens the anonymous envelopes to find two photographs of his late father, and three photographs of a beautiful woman he doesn't recognise. All five seem to date around fifty years ago.Photo number six is of Haydon himself, taken a few days earlier, and is marked with a felt-tip pen to show the trajectory of a bullet into his right eye and the resultant explosion of blood from the back of his head.It's not the first time Haydon has had a death threat, but as it becomes clear that this one could well be his last, Haydon is flung into a desperate search for the murderous maniac who's tracking him down - a search that leads to the sprawling mass of Mexico City and the unknown world of his father's past.
