Series
In this ,the 6th in the Charlie Parker series, Charlie is hired to find Daniel Clay, a child psychiatrist. Daniel Clay went missing shortly after several bodies were found in a remote area in Maine.
As usual, Charlie runs into many bad people who do not want the truth about Daniel to come out. A good mystery that kept me guessing and an ending I did not expect. But too many backstories on characters that I am not sure added to the story and of course, some super-natural beings that seem to follow Charlie.
Goodreads says it better::
Now, in "The Unquiet, " private detective Charlie Parker returns to untangle a horrifying story of betrayal, unclean desires, and murder -- a story of never-ending evil whose conclusion is not yet written.
Daniel Clay, a once-respected psychiatrist, has gone missing. His daughter insists that he killed himself after allegations surfaced that he had betrayed his patients to foul and evil men -- but when a killer obsessed with uncovering the truth behind his own daughter's disappearance comes seeking revenge, long-forgotten secrets begin to emerge. Hired by Dr. Clay's daughter to protect her from the predator on the loose, tortured and ingenious private detective Charlie Parker finds himself trapped between those who want the truth to be revealed and those who will go to any length to keep it hidden.
John Connolly masterfully intertwines secret lives and secret sins with the violence that so often lies beneath the surface of the honeycomb world in this gripping page-turner. Fast-paced, hypnotic, and elegantly written, The Unquiet is John Connolly at his chilling best
