About this audiobook
In the second installment of the suspense-filled series from #1 New York Times bestselling author Ian K. Smith, an ex-cop turned private investigator seeks to fight corruption on the streets of Chicago.
A Cadillac, a pistol, and a corpse make for another morning in Chicago. The body belongs to Walter Griffin, a prominent Black Chicagoan insider hailing from the city’s West Side. He ascended to the upper echelons of the mayor’s office only to meet his end in a watery grave at Wolf Point. Forensics finds his prints on the gun; it’s ruled a suicide.
But grizzled private investigator Ashe Cayne knows better.
Griffin’s children plead with a reluctant Ashe to hunt their father’s killer. They know their dad wouldn’t have taken his own life without a goodbye. And Ashe knows this town’s dark secrets often mean murder is not too far away.
Ashe decides to take on the case and navigate a city rotting with corruption, racial tensions, and sketchy backroom deals. On the bleak streets of Chicago, it’s every man for himself—and that makes everyone a suspect.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Chicago, private-investigators, criminal-injustice-system, suspense, crime-fiction, ex-cop, procedural, thriller, Black-African-American, thriller, political-corruption*****Two years after the fact, PI Cayne is asked by the family of a man his father called friend to find out the truth about their father's death. It was ruled a suicide by the CPD and the ME, but those who knew the man believed otherwise. Cayne is a golf addict, former CPD cop, son of a prominent physician, quotes Shakespeare quite often, and still believes in justice. And talk about meticulous due diligence! As a retired nurse, I really appreciated the technical interpretation of the post mortem, but I hated all the food descriptions--made me munch my way through the book!I requested and received a temporary digital ARC of this book from Thomas & Mercer via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
