“Block relishes backing us into the darkest, most frightening corners of the mind [and] makes it all but impossible to bail out until the terrible, twisted end.”

People, praise for the series

Matthew Scudder investigates the brutal murder of a woman known as the "bag lady." A seemingly homeless woman, she turns out to have distributed her substantial wealth in a complex will naming random strangers. Where did the money come from? Why was she living in such reduced circumstances? And why in the world did she choose these beneficiaries-the owner of a local newspaper stand, a neighbor she rarely spoke to, the detective himself-when her real friends and acquaintances got nothing at all? And how is all this linked to her murder?
