Now Miami's one-time top detective is haunted by an empty house, bad memories . . . and an impossible job offer for obscenely good money. Three years ago, Charlie Carver, the five-year-old son of a powerful Haitian billionaire, vanished. His father is offering Max $15 million to bring the boy back—or, at the very least, to find his body and deliver his abductors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMax knows he should turn this case down. There's no way the kid is still alive, and pursuing his ghost means plunging headfirst into Haiti, a steaming island hotbed of crime, greed, voodoo, and corruption. And the three detectives who preceded Mingus are all dead . . . or worse. But Max has nothing left to lose—even if his investigation stirs up a murky evil that can swallow a man whole . . . and leads him to the soul-destroying truth about a terrifying local myth, a child-stealing nightmare called \"Mr. Clarinet.\" \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HarperCollins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47070084858096,"sku":"9780061844430","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780061844430_p0.jpg?v=1769888268","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780061844430","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
