Description
When a wealthy Boston family hires a private investigator to stop a blackmailer, the case initially seems like a straightforward exercise in discretion and leverage. But a killing transforms the investigation, drawing him into the city’s privileged circles, where corruption, vice, marital betrayal, and murder conceal the truth. As the bodies mount, he must navigate dangerous loyalties and determine which of his allies—and suspects—can be trusted. Marked by sharp dialogue, clean prose, and a wry, morally observant perspective, this hard-boiled mystery explores power, privilege, and the uneasy boundaries between justice and friendship.
