About This Book

A night patrolman discovers the brutal slaying of a tobacconist reputedly involved in fencing stolen goods, the victim found in a room bolted from the inside. Police detectives confront an apparently impossible escape and a tangle of ambiguous testimony and shady neighbors. The narrative unfolds as investigation, surveillance, and streetwise inquiry peel back layers of deception; a mysterious, previously absent crimefighter reemerges to follow leads, confront suspects, and sift motive from misdirection amid the gritty urban rhythms that frame the mystery.
