The Ties That Bind

A high-caliber police procedural mystery from the acclaimed author Warren Adler, well-known for the iconic novel turned international box-office hit "The War of the Roses."

Rumors are abuzz at the Supreme Court that an associate justice has a not-so-secret sadomasochistic fetish. When Metropolitan Police detective Fiona Fitzgerald is called in to investigate the city's latest gruesome murder that involves S&M, she is forced to look at these rumors—and face her painful memories.

But when Fiona discovers a connection between an old acquaintance and the dead girl, she is determined to prove that the secrets of sexual aberration and the fear of exposure are the driving factors of this murder. Fiona finds herself in harm's way as her drive to make peace with her past collides with criminal sexual conduct.

Is her desire for revenge impairing the investigation?

The Ties That Bind is the seventh book in the Fiona Fitzgerald Mystery series.
