In the follow up to the critically acclaimed The Mountains Wild, Detective Maggie D'arcy tackles another intricate case that bridges Long Island and Ireland in A Distant Grave. Long Island homicide detective Maggie D'arcy and her teenage daughter, Lilly, are still recovering from the events of last fall when a strange new case demands Maggie's attention. The body of an unidentified Irish national turns up in a wealthy Long Island beach community and with little to go on but the scars on his back, Maggie once again teams up with Garda detectives in Ireland to find out who the man was and what he was doing on Long Island. The strands of the mystery take Maggie to a quiet village in rural County Clare that's full of secrets and introduce her to the world of humanitarian aid workers half a world away. And as she gets closer to the truth about the murder, what she learns leads her back to her home turf and into range of a dangerous and determined killer who will do anything to keep the victim's story hidden forever. With the lyrical prose, deeply drawn characters, and atmospheric setting that put The Mountains Wild on multiple best of the year lists, Sarah Stewart Taylor delivers another gripping mystery novel about family, survival, and the meaning of home.

When Sarah Taylor suspected that her four-year-old daughter, Nadia, had been kidnapped by Fawzi, her abusive ex-husband, Sarah's whole world was turned upside down. Shadowy airport CCTV images showed Nadia had boarded a flight to Tripoli with her father, and Sarah's worst fears were confirmed. No child abducted to Libya had ever been successfully returned to their mother in England. But then Sarah Taylor was no ordinary mother. The only possibility of getting Nadia back was to give up everything that she held dear in England and move to Libya. But her journey wouldn't be easy. Nadia was moved secretly between Fawzi's relatives for two years in a desperate attempt to hide her until a dramatic car chase, through the backstreets of Tripoli, finally led to the safe reconciliation of this extraordinary mother and daughter. Sarah's quest to bring her beloved daughter is described in an unfolding story of blackmail and embezzlement, the involvement of the Libyan secret police, death threats, a meeting with Colonel Gadaffi and the intervention of Prime Minister Gordon Brown.
