"[An] unusual cop story set in Chicago . . . This graphic depiction of urban and emotional decay carries a powerful, lasting punch." -Publishers Weekly
When a topless dancer is beaten to death, police detective Joe Kiley strongly suspects her boyfriend, a mob kingpin's brother, is the killer. He isn't-but in the course of trying to track him down, Kiley's partner winds up dead during an unauthorized stakeout.
Now Kiley wants vengeance-if not for the dancer, then for his longtime fellow cop. Despite warnings from the department, he's about to be drawn deep into the world of gangs and organized crime, and into entanglements with two women that will only heighten his despair, in this novel from an Edgar Award-winning author featuring "moments that glitter with insight and gritty, urban realism" (Publishers Weekly).
