There was nothing waiting for ex-cop Max Mingus when he walked
out of Attica Prison after serving hard time for murder--his adored
wife died in a car crash while he was locked up. Now Miami's
one-time top detective is haunted by an empty house, bad memories .
. . and an impossible job offer for obscenely good money. Three
years ago, Charlie Carver, the five-year-old son of a powerful
Haitian billionaire, vanished. His father is offering Max $15
million to bring the boy back--or, at the very least, to find his
body and deliver his abductors.
Max knows he should turn this case down. There's no way the kid
is still alive, and pursuing his ghost means plunging headfirst
into Haiti, a steaming island hotbed of crime, greed, voodoo, and
corruption. And the three detectives who preceded Mingus are all
dead . . . or worse. But Max has nothing left to lose--even if his
investigation stirs up a murky evil that can swallow a man whole .
. . and leads him to the soul-destroying truth about a terrifying
local myth, a child-stealing nightmare called "Mr. Clarinet."
