In the third book of this beautifully written and sadly wise series, Chicago police sergeant Abe Lieberman is stunned early one morning to hear some of the worst news possible: his brother's son, David, has been murdered in a robbery the night before and David's pregnant wife, Carol, has been seriously wounded. And so begins Lieberman's day.The aging policeman learns much about himself in the ensuing twenty-four hours as he resolves to catch those responsible. He learns, too, about dealing with the devil in his all-too-human forms, about personal retribution, and about what his family is made of.Though ongoing cases intrude on the grim pursuit, Lieberman and his recovering alcoholic partner, Hanrahan, relentlessly follow a trail of clues, calling in all markers to flush out the killers. When success is finally within reach, the horrible conclusion will leave Lieberman, and the reader, in shock.
