Looking solemn, Michael Sutton arrives in Kinsey Millhone's office with a story to tell. When he was six, he says, he wandered into the woods and saw two men digging a hole. They claimed they were pirates, looking for buried treasure. Now, all these years later, the long-forgotten events have come back to him—and he has pieced them together with news reports from the time, becoming convinced that he witnesses the burial of a kidnapped child.

Kinsey has nearly nothing to go on. Sutton doesn't even know where he was that day—and, she soon discovers, he has a history of what might generously be called an active imagination. Despite her doubts, Kinsey sets out to track down the so-called burial site. And what's found there pulls her into a hidden current of deceit stretching back more than twenty years...
Listened to part of this book with my husband - it is downloadable. I enjoy Sue's books as Kinsey is an interesting character. This one had some confusing twists - just what was a young boys memory?

I am taking this to the November meetup at Cravings.

picked up at the Calgary November meeting

An unusual format for this series of books - the backstories of the criminals are told in a series of flashbacks intermingled with Kinsey's crime investigation almost two decades later. Bringing to the February bookcrossing meeting.

Picked up at last month's Bookcrossing meetup. Sorry for the late registration!

This book came back to me.
