Synopsis
Still suffering from the unsolved murder of his young son seven years earlier, George Gates, who formerly worked as a globe-trotting travel writer, lives a lonely hermit's existence. His life finds new direction, however, when he learns about the disappearance of a young writer named Katherine Carr, who is still missing five years later. George's curiosity turns into obsession, and in his 22nd thriller Thomas H. Cook weaves together George's search with the text of Katherine's stories to great effect in this beguiling story.

Industry Reviews
"Adept at merging past and present plot lines, Cook eloquently examines the often cathartic act of storytelling....in [this] eerily poignant novel." (starred review)
(04/27/2009)

"The climax manages to be sobering and satisfying without tying up all the loose ends of Cook's most obscure puzzler."
(05/01/2009)

"Every Thomas H. Cook novel is a subtle mind game, but THE FATE OF KATHERINE CARR...is positively haunting."
(07/05/2009)
