Book description
Chris Paget's well ordered world is blown apart by his love for his
assistant, Terri, in the sequel to
Degree of Guilt
. Terri's ex husband, Ricky, is determined to destroy them both and
instigates a child custody battle for Terri's four-year old daughter,
accusing Terri of neglect and Paget's teenage son of sexual molestation.
Then Ricky is murdered and Paget finds himself the principle suspect, on
trial for his life. Eyes of a Child
demonstrates why North Patterson is an international bestselling
author. The pace is superb, the court room scenes unsurpassable, but
most importantly the compelling characters, particularly Ricky, Terri's
cunning and amoral husband, show North Patterson as one of the strongest
storytellers writing today. Richard North Patterson has written a
number of novels including the international bestsellers, Degree of Guilt
, Eyes of a Child
, The Final Judgement
, Silent Witness
, No Safe Place
, Dark Lady
and Protect and Defend
. His novels have won the Edgar Allan Poe Award and the Grand Prix de
Littérature Policière. He and his wife, Laurie, live with their family
in San Francisco and on Martha's Vineyard.
