A dark, compulsively readable psychological suspense debut, and the first in a new series featuring a character as heartbreakingly troubled and emotionally complex as Stieg Larsson's Lisbeth Salander, the brilliant, fearless, chaotic, and deeply flawed Nora Watts, who is a survivor despite the crushing odds. DEEP CURRENT begins with a phone call. The child Nora Watts gave up for adoption fifteen years ago, the product of a brutal rape that left her clinging to life, has vanished and the police are labeling her a chronic runaway. No one is looking for the girl and her adoptive parents have nowhere else to turn. Once a starving artist herself, a biracial product of the foster system, transient, homeless, left for dead in a dark forest, Nora knows better than anyone what happens to girls that are lost to the streets. To the girls that the police don't even bother to look for. As she begins to investigate, she uncovers a dangerous conspiracy and embarks on a harrowing journey of deception and violence that takes her from the rainy streets of Vancouver to the snow-capped mountains of the Canadian interior and finally to the island where she will face her greatest demon: a shadowy figure from her own dark past. All to save a girl she wishes had never been born.
