"New York Times bestselling author Linda Fairstein delivers a heart-pounding thriller that explores the dark secrets of Manhattan's iconic fashion scene in her latest Alexandra Cooper novel. New York City is one of the fashion capitals of the world, well-known for its glamour and style. Nowhere is this more apparent than on the runway, where American haute couture continually astounds with its creativity, daring, and innovation in the name of beauty. Yet high fashion means high stakes, as Alex Cooper quickly discovers when businessman and designer Wolf Savage is found dead in an apparent suicide, mere days before the biggest show of his career. When the man's daughter insists Savage's death was murder, the case becomes more than a media sensation: It is a race to find a killer in a world created entirely out of fantasy and illusion. With her own job at the DA's office in jeopardy, and the temptation to self-medicate her PTSD with alcohol almost too strong to resist, Alex is not anyone's first choice for help. But she is determined to uncover the grime--and the possible homicide--beneath the glitz. Along with detectives Mike Chapman and Mercer Wallace, Alex must penetrate the twisted roots and mixed motives among the high-profile players in the Garment District. The investigation takes the trio from the missing money in Wolf Savage's international fashion house to his own recovery from addiction; from the role of Louisiana Voodoo in his life to his excessive womanizing; and to the family secrets he kept so well-hidden, even from those closest to him--just as things are about to get deadly on the catwalk.

With her colleagues, including NYPD detectives Mike Chapman and Mercer Wallace, Alex races against the clock and hopes for a "cold hit"—a DNA match that would reveal the identity of the murderer by linking the crime to someone already in the police database.

"Who wants to live forever? As the 1960's ended and the Batman TV show faded from the airwaves, a new atmosphere began to take hold in Gotham City - a darker more serious tone, generated by the expressive, richly-rendered artwork of Neal Adams, Dick Giordano and Irv Novick that accomapnied the intricate, thoughtful stories of Dennis O'Neil and Frank Robbins. By the early 1970's, those talents burned brightest around Batman's newest and deadliest foe - the immortal Ra's al-Ghul. In such celebrated tales as "Daughter of the Demon," "The Lazarus Pit," and "The Demon lives again," the Dark Knight Detective faced the greatest challenges of his life from this most ruthless of antagonists - but the threat of death from Ra's Al-Ghul paled in comparison to the danger posed by his daughter Talia's all-consuming love!" -- Page [4] of cover.
