A Gripping Tale of Murder, Corruption, Racketeering, and Political Malfeasance

Detective Gianni Basso has excelled in the homicide division for years with an outstanding record of accomplishment in resolving his cases. His most recent has far-reaching implications, since it involves the death of Jennifer Ambrose, a high-profile lawyer. She worked as the general counsel for Diego Santiago, a prominent businessman with plenty of connections at City Hall.

Complicating matters, Santiago has been linked to the growing drug problem in the city, although none of the allegations have been proven. Along with his partner Julius Curto, Detective Basso must delve into the private life of Ms. Ambrose and her many associates to solve this mystery.

With the mayor, the chief of police, and the media crying for resolution, Basso is under considerable pressure to find the answer to this puzzling case, but numerous obstacles are thrown in his way to hinder his progress.
