A decade has passed since Maggie MacGowens last investigation in the pages of Hornsbys award-winning noir series. Gritty and streetwise, yet compassionate, these mysteries appeal to Americas current fascination with realistic crime stories. Filmmaker Maggie MacGowen has taken on many tough assignments over the years. However, when she discovers a note from her newly dead husband, Detective Mike Flint, urging her her to take a fresh look at a decade-old unsolved case of a boy who went missing, she isnt sure that shes up to the challenge. But how does one say no to a dead man? Maggie seeks information from anyone who has a connection: a spoiled cop, an ex-con taxi dancer, the dead youths gang setthe hookers, the cons, the addicts, the homeless and the hopelessand the good and decent people among them who remain the foundation of a community always in transition, always under siege. The answers Maggie discovers arent what she expects, nor is the sometimes deadly opposition from all sides. But she finds strength from her own resilience...and an acceptance of Mikes final decision.
