Description
Set in the early 1950s, this latest installment follows Aloysius “Archer,” a mild-mannered young man whose knack for trouble makes his path into private investigation feel almost inevitable. Headed to California to work for a celebrated Bay Town detective, Archer is pulled into a high-stakes evening when an elderly man recruits him as a bodyguard—complete with threats, rough treatment, and a tense midnight rendezvous at an all-night diner. As Archer digs deeper, he uncovers unsettling clues about the origins of powerful wealth and the secrets tied to a prominent family’s past. Blending Baldacci’s brisk pacing with sharp character work and classic noir intrigue, the novel explores loyalty, moral risk, and how a single gamble can reshape an entire life.
