A woman finds a link between a present-day murderer and unresolved issues from her own troubled past in this psychological thriller from the author of THE FOOTPRINTS OF GOD. A serial killer who targets white family men over 40 and leaves their bodies covered with human bite marks is prowling the streets of New Orleans. The cops call in Dr. Cat Ferry, an expert forensic odontologist (specialist in human teeth and bites) who with equal expertise hides her alcoholism, her depression, and her affair with a married detective from her colleagues. But the repeated panic attacks she mysteriously suffers during her examinations of the bodies gets her dumped from the case. Hoping to regain some control over her rapidly destabilizing life, Cat goes home to her family's estate in Natchez, Mississippi, where she inadvertently finds evidence that calls into question the accepted explanation for her father's long-unsolved murder--and where traumatic memories resurface.

Drawing on the Gothic tradition, Emily Bronte's WUTHERING HEIGHTS is the tale of Catherine Earnshaw, a wilfull and romantic girl brought up to be a lady, and Heathcliff, the mysterious gypsy orphan. Bronte's use of a series of unreliable narrators to unfold their story heightens the mythic quality of the passionate attachment that is at the heart of the book--a relationship that remains tempestuous to its end, and leaves its mark on future generations of their complicated families. The novel's innovative structure, full of sophisticated flashbacks and shifts in time, was ahead of its time, and the brilliant evocation of the Yorkshire moors, with their contrasting great houses--dark and terrible Wuthering Heights, serene and civilized Thrushcross Grange--is a brilliant example of scene-setting. WUTHERING HEIGHTS is Emily Bronte's only novel--unless it is true that, upon her death, her sister Charlotte burned the manuscript of another. When the book was published (1847), it was considered odd, unpleasant, and slightly mad, but time has improved its reputation: WUTHERING HEIGHTS is widely acknowledged to be one of the greatest works of English literature.
