Dave Garrett is always looking for work, but he wasn't looking for a job when he walked into the law offices of Charles Preston; he just wanted to drop off the brochure advertising his availability. But Preston needed someone for a domestic case and money was no object.It was simple enough on the surface: Pat Winter was fifty and had strained his back on a loading dock, leaving him with two herniated disks. Then his wife, Maria, announced she was moving out. Winter wanted to know who she was seeing; there was no doubt in his mind that there was another man involved.There was. That was easy enough to find out. But when Maria's car is forced off the road, killing her, the simple domestic surveillance turns into an increasingly complex murder investigation.From the upscale bars and boutiques of Philadelphia's South Street, to the quiet suburbs beyond the end of the Main Line, Garrett's inquiries take him ever deeper into a world of passions run amok.
