The Guilty Dead is the ninth book in P.J. Tracy's addictive and internationally bestselling Twin Cities series.

Gregory Norwood, wealthy businessman and close friend of Minnesota's leading candidate for Governor, is found dead on the first anniversary of his son's drug overdose. It seems clear to Detectives Gino and Magozzi that grief drove him to suicide.

Until they realise the left-handed man seems to have used his right hand to pull the trigger.

And they find the second body.

As the seemingly open-and-shut case becomes a murder enquiry, the detectives begin to delve into the dark secrets of one of the city's most powerful families. It seems the murders are not the first in the Norwoods' tragic story - and they won't be the last . . .

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY 2 JUL 2018

In Tracy's busy ninth Monkeewrench novel (after 2017's Nothing Stays Buried), the computer geeks of Grace MacBride's Monkeewrench software company join forces with Minneapolis homicide detectives Leo Magozzi and Gino Rolseth. The death of Minnesota philanthropist Gregory Norwood just one year after the fatal overdose of his addict son, Trey Norwood, looks like a suicide, until Leo and Gino uncover enough oddities to suggest murder. Meanwhile, a new anti-terror program developed by Monkeewrench uncovers a terrorist plot to bomb city hall. That a lowlife named Gus Riskin had a hand in Trey's death is revealed in the prologue, but Tracy maintains suspense by carefully concealing the links that connect Riskin to Gregory's death and to the terrorist plot. The book's chief pleasure lies in watching the members of MacBride's oddball crew, including Harley Davidson and Roadrunner, match wits and skills with the wise-cracking detectives.)
