Four years ago Lew Fonesca's wife was struck and killed in a hit-and-run within sight of their apartment. He fled Chicago, driving mindlessly until his car gave up the ghost in Sarasota, FL. Working from a cheap office behind the Dairy Queen on Highway 301, he makes a threadbare living as a process server and savors his clinical depression like a fine wine. Then his therapist, who alternately acts as his conscience and his sparring partner, tells him it's time he goes back to Chicago and closes the door to the past so that he can finally get on with the rest of his life. Lew hates to admit it, but he's beginning to see her point.

So Lew returns to his home town, to friends and family—and to a grief that threatens to engulf him. He's resolved to dig until he finds out who killed his wife. In doing so, he'll uncover both sweet and painful memories of his past. He'll also confront a murderer who'll not hesitate to kill again to make sure hidden secrets stay buried.

Stuart M. Kaminsky (1934–2009) was one of the most prolific crime fiction authors of the last four decades. He penned twenty-four novels starring the detective whom he described as “the anti–Philip Marlowe.” In 1981’s Death of a Dissident, he debuted Moscow police detective Porfiry Rostnikov, whose stories were praised for their accurate depiction of Soviet life. His other two series starred Abe Lieberman, a hardened Chicago cop, and Lew Fonesca, a process server. In all, he wrote more than sixty novels.

Reviews

“[Michael McConnohie] positively shines in the way he breathes life into Kaminsky’s characters [which] help transform this story of tragedy and redemption into a work that is profound and entertaining but never maudlin. Kaminsky’s characters are multidimensional and textured, and McConnohie seamlessly gives them color and movement.”

“Kaminsky has a knack for creating oddball characters in rollicking plots.”

“Several expertly handled little mysteries.”
