"The default setting for teenagers is liar. They lie like they French kiss—to see how it feels in the mouth." - the judgment of Detective Donna Bradley, who has a clear eye, a skeptical soul and a chink in her emotional armor that she will learn about the hard way.

She's looking for a runaway teenager in the town of Webster, Connecticut, but everyone - not just teenagers - is lying to her. At the same time, the town is reeling from the murder of a wealthy insurance executive, who had his intestines removed with a gardening implement. Yes, you could say this usually quiet town is in crisis.

As the town’s startling secrets are uncovered, Donna’s search for a killer becomes a search for herself, as her own weaknesses are exposed by the pressures of the investigation.

“The Flies of August” unfolds through one hot, harrowing summer as the American recession drives rich and poor alike to desperate measures.
