商品簡介
A gripping psychological drama straight from the headlines—about a young girl whose older sister vanishes on a luxury Caribbean vacation and, years later, a chance encounter with one of the suspects which spirals into obsession.
Claire is only seven years old when her college-age sister, Alison, vanishes from the luxury resort on the Caribbean island of Saint X on the last night of their family vacation. Several days later, Alison’s naked body is found in a remote spot on a nearby cay, and two local men—employees at the resort—are arrested. But the evidence is slim, the timeline against it, and the men are soon released. It turns into national tabloid news, a lurid mystery that will go unsolved, but for Claire’s family there is only the sad return home to broken lives.
Years later, riding in a New York City taxi, Claire recognizes the name on the cabbie’s license: Clive Richardson. Her driver is one of the men originally suspected of murdering her sister. The fateful encounter sets Claire on an obsessive pursuit of the truth—and not only to find out what happened the night of Alison’s death. Claire spirals into the elusive question of exactly who her sister was. At seven, Claire had been barely old enough to know: a beautiful, changeable, provocative girl of eighteen at a turbulent moment of identity formation.
As Claire doggedly shadows Clive, hoping to gain his trust, waiting for the slip that will uncover the truth, an unlikely intimacy develops between them, two people whose lives were forever marked by a tragedy.
SAINT X is a flawlessly drawn and deeply moving story that hurtles to a devastating end.
