توضیحات
That which was buried is brought to light and wreaks hell -- on no one more so than Frank Mackey, beloved undercover guru and burly hero first mentioned in French's second book about the Undercover Squad, The Likeness.
Faithful Place is Frank's old neighborhood, the town he fled twenty-two years ago, abandoning an abusive alcoholic father, harpy mother, and two brothers and sisters who never made it out. They say going home is never easy, but for Frank, investigating the cold case of the just-discovered body of his teenage girlfriend, it is a tangled, dangerous journey, fraught with mean motivations, black secrets, and tenuous alliances. Because he is too close to the case, and because the Place (including his family) harbors a deep-rooted distrust of cops, Frank must undergo his investigation furtively, using all the skills picked up from years of undercover work to trace the killer and the events of the night that changed his life.

Frank Mackey, Undercover Ermittler, hat seine Familie seit 22 Jahren nicht gesehen. Die vier Geschwister, den trinkenden, gewalttätigen Vater, die ruppige Mutter. Er wollte der Armut und Perspektivlosigkeit seines Viertels für immer entfliehen - zusammen mit seiner ersten grossen Liebe. Rosie. Doch die hatte ihn versetzt und war allein nach England aufgebrochen, so hat Frank jedenfalls immer gedacht. Bis Rosies Koffer und ihre Fährkarten in dem alten Abbruchhaus in der Strasse seiner Kindheit gefunden werden. Frank muss zurück nach Faithful Place und feststellen, dass er diesen dunklen Ort immer in sich getragen hat.
