A pair of blue eyes and a 20 year old unsolved murder is at the center of this mystery.  A three year old boy sees his father murdered by a blue-eyed man who threatens him and his family with these words, “Tell your mother she’s next, then it’s your turn.” A well written thriller by one of the great mystery writers.
