New York City 1950. Finding a stranger's body in his office after a long Fourth of July weekend, private cop Marlowe Black must learn why and what the killer's message is if he wants to stay alive. He hunts the murderer through a twisting maze of government agents, missing Russian gold coins, Nazi SS fugitives, Woodlawn Cemetery, and a family wracked by greed and indecision. Black will need to resolve an old grievance, make a heart-wrenching discovery, and wrestle with decisions whether to adhere to his own ethics and reach beyond love and death.
