A gripping new Thriller from New York Times bestselling author Robert Dugoni.
In a city steeped in Old West debauchery, Shoe\'s following every lead to a very dangerous place--one that could bring him glory and fame or end his life..
For now.
Not with a tangle of conflicting stories, an unlikely motive, and witnesses like Ray\'s girlfriend, a glamour girl whose pretty lips are sealed.
The more Shoe digs, the more he\'s convinced nothing is as it seems.
Soon the whole town\'s talking, and Shoe\'s first homicide is fast becoming the Trial of the Century.
His accused killer? Club owner and mobster George Miller, who claims he pulled the trigger in self-defense.
The victim, Frankie Ray, is a former prizefighter.
The story is going to be front-page news, and Shoe is the first reporter on the scene.
There\'s been a murder at a social club on Profanity Hill--an underworld magnet for vice crimes only a privileged few can afford.
Cutting his teeth on a small-time beat, hungry and ambitious young reporter William Shoe Shumacher gets a tip that could change his career.
The city is in the grips of the Great Depression, Prohibition, and vice.
Seattle, 1933.
If he lives to write about it.
It\'s the kind of story that can make a reporter\'s career.
And a murder that\'s about to become Seattle\'s hottest mystery.
High-level corruption.
The Great Depression.
