From the author of the acclaimed Burke private-eye series comes an ambitious and chilling novel that shows us not only what evil is, but where it comes from. For Shella is nothing less than a tour of evil's spawning ground, conducted by one of its natural predators. He is called "Ghost" because he is so nondescript as to be invisible and because he slays with such reflexive ease that he might be one of the dead. Once he traveled with a woman who was called "Shella" -- because those who had treated her as a horrendously ill-used child had tried to make her come out of her shell. Now Shella has vanished in a wilderness of strip clubs and peep shows, and Ghost is looking for her, guided by a killer's instinct and the recognition that can only exist between two people who have been damaged past the point of no return. The result is Andrew Vachss's most compelling work to date, the thriller reimagined as a bleak romance of the damned.
Shella decides to pull a prank on her friends down the by the riverone summer evening. When does it, she ends up making a mess and hurting the feelings of some of her friends in the process. She accidentally breaks the beaver's dam and this washes away the lily pads that the frog enjoys. It also changes the depths of the water, upsetting the fish in the area.
Lydia, an old weaver slave, dreams of a better life, but she is torn when she has the opportunity to escape and pass as a white woman, but must leave the man she loves behind in the process.
