A sweeping, propulsive, darkly humorous new novel by the best-selling author of Snow Falling on Cedars: a story of destiny, desire, and destruction that reimagines Sophocles?s Oedipus Rex for our own era. In Seattle in 1962, Walter Cousins, a mild-mannered actuary a guy who weighs risk for a living takes a risk of his own, and makes the biggest error of his life. He sleeps with Diane Burroughs, the sexy, not-quite-legal British au pair who?s taking care of his children for the summer. Diane gets pregnant and leaves their baby on a doorstep, but not before turning the tables on Walter and setting in motion a tragedy of epic proportions. Their orphaned child, adopted by an adoring family and named Edward Aaron King, grows up to become a billionaire Internet tycoon and an international celebrity?the? King of Search who unknowingly, but inexorably, hurtles through life toward a fate he may have no power to shape. An instant classic?David Guterson?s most daring and dazzling novel yet?that brings a contemporary urgency to one of the greatest stories of all time.
