Learn moreNameless had told Mitchell Krochek that he'd do whatever he could to find his missing wife, Janice. She'd run away before—propelled by a gambling fever that grew ever higher—and Mitch had always taken her back. This time, when Nameless, his partner Tamara, and the agency's chief operative Jake Runyon finally found her in a sleazy San Francisco hotel, she demanded a divorce.
A few days later, a beaten and bloody Janice stumbled into the agency begging to go home. No one is surprised when, soon after her homecoming, she disappears again.
But gambling addiction has a way of twisting things, and the blood on Mitchell and Janice Krochek's kitchen floor was a card off the bottom of the deck.
Janice is missing again, Mitchell is the prime suspect, and as Nameless searches for the truth behind her disappearance, he uncovers a vicious racket that preys on gambling-fever victims …

Reviews
“In the Nameless Detective’s twisty, fast-paced latest he proves that he can still track lost ladies with the best of them…Pronzini is such a quiet writer that he tends to be undervalued, but he shouldn’t be.”
“This insightful novel will appeal to those who like the mean streets portrayed with understatement and subtlety rather than gory violence.”
“Pronzini is justly celebrated as a chronicler of San Francisco, but this novel also showcases his deft touch with interiors—how an unmade bed, the stench of cigarette smoke, or an antiseptically clean and empty home can say volumes about the tail ends of desperate lives. Another Pronzini winner.”
“Reading books by Bill Pronzini is, quite simply, a great way to spend your time. Pronzini is a true master.”
