Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Until her paper, the Baltimore Star, crashed and burned, Tess Monaghan was a damn good reporter who knew her hometown intimately — from historic Fort McHenry to the crumbling projects of Cherry Hill. Now gainfully unemployed at twenty-nine, she's willing to take any freelance job to pay the rent — including a bit of unorthodox snooping for her rowing buddy, Darryl "Rock" Paxton.

In a city where someone is murdered almost everyday, attorney Michael Abramowitz's death should be just another statistic. But the slain lawyer's notoriety — and his noontime trysts with Rock's fiancee — make the case front page news...and points to Rock as the likely murderer. But trying to prove her friend's innocence couls prove costly to Tess — and add her name to that infamous ever-growing list.
