This moving tale of two individuals whose paths cross amid mystery, murder, and the Great Depression comes from the bestselling author of Where the Lost Wander and What the Wind Knows.
Chicago, 1923: When ten-year-old Dani Flanagan gets home, her parents are dead and the police are swarming the house. The young patrolman assigned to the investigation, Michael Malone, learns that the situation—and Dani Flanagan herself—are more complex than the police would like to admit. Dani is taken away to live with her spinster aunts in Cleveland, and Malone is warned to stop talking.
Fifteen years later, friend and renowned Prohibition agent Eliot Ness, who is now Cleveland's head of safety, is among those who call Michael Malone to Cleveland to look into a string of killings that have left everyone perplexed. There, in a city under a serial killer's control, Malone and Dani's paths recross.
Malone is attracted to Dani because of her sympathy for the poor and her fondness for the deceased. It doesn't take him long to figure out that she may be able to assist him with his case. There's a race to identify the murderer or risk becoming his next victim as dread sweeps across the city and Malone and Dani face the hidden truths that bind them together.
