The Vanished Hands Paperback - 2006
by Robert Wilson
A suspicious suicide calls Javier Falcon to a wealthy neighborhood on the outskirts of Seville. In quick succession, two more suicides occur--one of them a fellow police officer in the sex crimes unit. As Falcon's investigation deepens, so, too, does suspicion that perhaps these deaths aren't suicides, and the mystery takes a shocking, explosive turn.
