By the Time You Read This (John Cardinal and Lise Delorme Mystery, #4)

Giles Blunt
3.97/5 (1545 ratings)
In this thriller with heart-stopping suspense, detective John Cardinal is on the hunt for an ingenious killer even as he mourns his own wife’s tragic death.

Autumn has arrived in Algonquin Bay, and with it an unusual spate of suicides. The most shocking yet is Cardinal’s wife who has succumbed to her battle with manic depression. As he takes time to grieve, his partner, Lise Delorme, handles an unsavory assignment - a young girl appears in a series of unspeakable photos being traded online, and background elements seem to indicate she may live in the Algonquin Bay area. Delorme is desperate to find the girl before she suffers more abuse.

As to Cardinal, he begins to suspect his wife's death may be a homicide. But his colleagues believe he is too distraught to think clearly, and he’s forced to investigate alone. Is there something to his suspicion?

You are sure to find here a confirmation of Giles Blunt's reputation as a rising international star in crime fiction, and of detective John Cardinal as one of the most interesting characters in the genre.
