书籍简介

“S. A. 科斯比的小说总是能成为犯罪小说的经典之作”——迈克尔·康纳利

“美国犯罪小说找到了未来，他的名字是S.A.科斯比”——丹尼斯·勒翰

儿子回家。一笔危险的债务。即将被点燃的秘密……以及一个被火海吞噬的家庭。

罗曼·卡拉瑟斯离开了家乡弗吉尼亚州杰斐逊河畔的家族火葬场，远离了硝烟弥漫的火葬场。

他原本在亚特兰大担任财务顾问，过着奢靡的生活，直到他接到姐姐妮维亚的电话，得知他们的父亲在一场肇事逃逸事故后昏迷不醒。

罗曼回家后，才发现事故可能并非表面看起来的那样。他的弟弟但丁欠着危险而残忍的罪犯的债。

为了保护家人，罗曼愿意做任何事。任何事。

罗曼是一位金融奇才，精通数字，擅长让客户致富。他须竭尽所能，拯救家人，同时还要应对一个萦绕他们二十年的阴影：罗曼和他的兄弟姐妹十几岁时，母亲失踪了。为了维系家庭，妮维亚牺牲了自己生命中的大部分，决心一劳永逸地解开这个谜团。

命运、机遇和心痛点燃了卡拉瑟斯一家的生活，他们须团结一致，才能生存下去，否则就只能眼睁睁地看着生活化为灰烬。

因为，正如他们的父亲从出生起就告诫他们的那样，没有什么是永恒的。一切都会燃烧殆尽。

'S. A. Cosby's novels always hit the grand slam of crime fiction' MICHAEL CONNELLY

'American crime fiction has found its future and his name is S.A.Cosby' DENNIS LEHANE

A son returning home. A dangerous debt. Secrets about to ignite . . . and a family consumed by flames.

Roman Carruthers left the smoke and fire of his family's crematory business behind in his hometown of Jefferson Run, Virginia.

He is enjoying a life of shallow excess as a financial adviser in Atlanta until he gets a call from his sister, Neveah, telling him their father is in a coma after a hit-and-run accident.

When Roman goes home, he learns the accident may not be what it seems. His brother, Dante, is deeply in debt to dangerous, ruthless criminals.

And Roman is willing to do anything to protect his family. Anything.

A financial whiz with a head for numbers and a talent for making his clients rich, Roman must use all his skills to try to save his family while dealing with a shadow that has haunted them all for twenty years: the disappearance of their mother when Roman and his siblings were teenagers. It's a mystery that Neveah, who has sacrificed so much of her life to hold her family together, is determined to solve once and for all.

As fate and chance and heartache ignite their lives, the Carruthers family must pull together to survive or see their lives turn to ash.

Because, as their father counseled them from birth, nothing lasts forever. Everything burns.
