The daunting task that confronts Gurney, once the NYPD’s top homicide cop: determining the guilt or innocence of a woman already convicted of shooting her charismatic politician husband - who was felled by a rifle bullet to the brain while delivering the eulogy at his own mother’s funeral. In John Verdon’s most sensationally twisty novel yet, ingenious puzzle solver Dave Gurney brings his analytical brilliance to a shocking murder that couldn’t have been committed the way the police say it was. Heather Graham and Ellen Burstyn have already signed up to reprise their Flowers roles for Petals on the Wind, and the Dollanganger kids' parts have been recast with older actors - Rose McIver will play the adult Cathy (Kiernan Shipka in Flowers), Bailey Buntain (of Bunheads) has been cast as Carrie (Ava Telek in Flowers), and Wyatt Nash will be Christopher (Mason Dye in Flowers).

She also knows that everyone who’s been through The Program returns as a blank slate. Sloane’s parents have already lost one child Sloane knows they’ll do anything to keep her alive. With suicide now an international epidemic, one outburst could land her in The Program, the only proven course of treatment. Sloane knows better than to cry in front of anyone. In Sloane’s world, true feelings are forbidden, teen suicide is an epidemic, and the only solution is The Program. Lucie tempts Tristan like no other woman, burning him up with her fierceness and determination every time they clash. But who could have predicted that the one person standing between her and success is her old nemesis and London's undisputed lord of sin, Lord Ballentine? Or that he would be willing to hand over the reins for an outrageous price – a night in her bed. She and her band of Oxford suffragists have finally scraped together enough capital to control one of London's major publishing houses, with one purpose: to use it in a coup against Parliament.
