Publisher's Synopsis
PART I: THE MADMAN - From the stark and ignoble perch of captivity's iron embrace, the good boy turned MADMAN finally speaks of his role in the horrific and sordid events that left those he loved most laid waste in his vengeful and murderous wake. PART II: THE PEACE OFFICER - The French Quarter's hypnotic veil of revelrous merriment is torn utterly asunder when the PEACE OFFICER discovers there that things are very rarely as they seem, that the past is always present and that the dead do in fact live. PART III: THE CRIME ICON - In the mountains high above Shenzhen Province is where the illusive yet ubiquitous CRIME ICON emerges from the shadows just long enough to deliver a sinister and crushing blow to the heart of one of his most relentless, enduring and impudent foes. Three separate stories, one connected path. "WHAT REMAINS: A SHORT STORY TRILOGY" focuses individually on the life trajectories of Robert "Bobby" Dupree, Detective Kathryn O'Rourke and international crime icon William Chiang seven years after the pulse pounding events that took place in the acclaimed debut suspense thriller, "THE WHISPER OF SERPENTS."
