SANTA FE
Special Investigators Steve Katz and Darrel Two Moons regularly work the nightshift in downtown New Mexico. The calls that come in are about feuding spouses, gang assaults, alcohol-induced fights. But not tonight…
Larry Olfson, a well-known art dealer, is found stretched across the bleached pine floor of his Santa Fe art gallery. A body, exhibited as a sinister piece of art. A soulless still life. Did the selection of the weapon imply some sort of symbolic deal – killed by art – or just opportunism?
As the hunt to find the murderer intensifies, Katz and Two Moons become convinced that the answer lies in the vengeful and disturbed minds of those closest to the victim. And they sense, too, that another life will soon be lost if the killer is left free any longer…
BOSTON
The violent death of a young man at a club in downtown Boston is not usually headline news. It’s a dangerous part of the city, and guns are ready currency. But this time the media are already gathering when Detectives Dorothy Breton and Micky McCain arrive at the scene of crime. For the deceased is a talented young sportsman who just had the door slammed on a brilliant future.
With two teenage sons of her own, Dorothy wants the perpetrator off the streets fast. The police chief wants this high-profile case cleared up overnight. If the traumatised witnesses hold their nerve, Patrick Delveccio won’t see the outside world again for a long, long time.
