"A MUST-READ FOR CRIME-NOVEL FANATICS . . . That rarity, a serious, multilayered novel of crime that recalls Graham Greene's Third Man and Brighton Rock."
--Booklist

All is not well in the life of Greenwich Village lesbian P.I. Lauren Laurano. She and her lover are drifting apart. There's a psychopath watching her every move. Her friend Elissa's rich aunt has just been brutally murdered--and the police suspect that Elissa is the killer.

Lauren knows better. So, using her unique combination of street-savvy detecting and on-line know-how, Lauren sets out to prove Elissa's innocence. But exonerating her friend rapidly turns into a perilous assignment.

Stalking and being stalked, Lauren Laurano is forced to use resources she never knew she had--just to stay alive.

"ENGAGING . . . A deft touch is the closing cliffhanger."
--Publishers Weekly
