"One of the most remarkable combinations of a private-eye novel and psychological suspense story, with an entirely new slant, that has ever been published." -- The New York Times Book Review

At the center of this genre-bending tale of sex, death, and parental love is a private investigator known as The Eye, who has been seeking his missing daughter for many years. In the course of his search, he encounters a mysterious femme fatale who routinely attracts, robs, and murders wealthy men. The Eye knows perfectly well that this woman is not his long-lost daughter, yet he's compelled to follow her, destroying the evidence of her murders, covering her tracks, and taking an active -- though silent -- role in her crimes.
This offbeat mystery's portrait of a pair of despondent loners presents a haunting tale of obsession.
"A pivotal work in the history of mystery fiction." -- The Guardian
