Buried on Avenue B

(Harper Collins) New York homicide detective Darlene O’Hara, the main character of Jonge’s debut solo novel, Shadows Still Remain, returns to follow a tip that an Alzheimer’s patient has confessed to murdering his partner and burying the body 17 years ago. When O’Hara has the garden where the body is supposedly buried excavated, however, the NYPD stumbles upon the corpse of a 10-year-old boy. O’Hara sets out to find the boy’s killer. Jonge is a contributing writer for The New York Times Magazine, and co-authored three books with best-selling author James Patterson before writing Shadows Still Remain.
