Product Details

Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

Images of gruesome violence pervade this gripping tale of abduction and serial murder. Affluent housewives in Portland, Ore., are disappearing without a trace. In each case the only clue is a black rose and a note reading, "Gone, but Not Forgotten." Upstate New York police detective Nancy Gordon arrives to tell Portland's DA of a similar series of murders she had investigated back East. After implicating powerful local developer Martin Darius in the crimes, Gordon herself disappears. When several mutilated bodies are found at a construction site owned by Darius, police take him into custody. Darius's newly retained attorney, criminal lawyer Betsy Tannenbaum--a zealous advocate of women's rights and a successful defender of battered wives--begins her own search, which leaves her wondering if Darius is a psychotic killer on the loose, or the victim of a government cover-up involving the President's nominee for Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. Margolin ( The Last Innocent Man ) writes with breakneck pacing and just the right injection of lurid detail to make chills race down readers' spines. If his narrative is a bit choppy and some of the plot twists are telegraphed too clearly, he nonetheless delivers a top-notch whodunit with an explosive and satisfying conclusion. Literary Guild and Doubleday Book Club selection; major ad/promo; author tour.

From Library Journal

Four women disappear from Hunter's Point, New York, before the murdered bodies of Sandra Lake and her six-year-old daughter are found. Next to Mrs. Lake are a black rose and a note that reads, "Gone, but not forgotten." Ten years later women are vanishing from Portland, Oregon. In each of their homes is a black rose and a note identical to that found in Hunter's Point. After hearing about the New York case and its possible connection to his, Portland's district attorney, Alan Page, arrests wealthy Martin Darius for the torture and murder of the people whose bodies are found on his property. Meanwhile, Betsy Tannenbaum, a rising star in the legal profession and Darius's lawyer, discovers incriminating evidence against him. Margolin combines the riveting suspense of the traditional thriller with the current legal thriller to create a first-rate novel containing all the best elements of a mystery as well. The pat denouement is the only negative in this thoroughly enticing book. Essential for all fiction collections. Previewed in Prepub Alert, LJ 6/1/93.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent!, Oct 15 2006
By Karen A. Burke - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I read this book when I was about 15 because I had read all of the horror novels in the school library. Even at such a young age, the book made gruesome sense. I know that there was a lot about this book that I couldn't grasp, which is why I'm looking forward to reading it again.

I'd recomend this book for anyone who enjoys law, criminal justice, psychology, sociology, and/or horror books.

Similar to other readers, I had never heard of Margolin before. I was very pleased with this book. It kept me interested the whole way through. I'm looking forward to reading more books by this author.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book stayed with me awhile, Mar 3 2004
By S. Hayes (MN) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Gone, but Not Forgotten (Mass Market Paperback)
You've probably already read a synopsis of the book, so I won't waste more of your time. This was the first book I'd read by him. I had never heard of Philip Margolin before I read the book, and now I can't understand why. This book was written so well, and I just couldn't put it down until I finished. It's not one of these books that drags on and seems to go nowhere until the last minute. This book catches your attention and keeps it. Later after I'd read it, I still found myself returning to the story and thinking about some of the characters.
