Publisher's Synopsis
When photojournalist Jordan Glass chances upon a portrait by an unknown artist in a Hong Kong museum, she is stunned and speechless: the face in the painting is that of her identical twin sister, who vanished without trace 13 months before. The painting is part of a series entitled "Sleeping Women". As Jordan studies the other portraits in the exhibition, she realises that they depict eleven women who disappeared in New Orleans over the past 18 months. These women are believed dead but, with no corpses to work from, the FBI has been paralysed for months. Teaming up with forensic psychologist Dr Arthur Lenz and FBI special agent John Kaiser to learn the identity of the killer, Jordan finds that they are not including her out of kindness. The murderer's trail doubles back into her own past, exposing secrets that she must confront in a final, shocking showdown.
