Read a sample Read a sample
A detective looks into the death of her ex-boyfriend: "The most interesting private eye I've encountered since Stieg Larsson's Lisbeth Salander." —The Washington Post
When Claire DeWitt's ex-boyfriend Paul Casablancas, a musician, is found dead in his Mission District house, Claire is on the case. Paul's wife and the police are sure Paul was killed for his valuable collection of vintage guitars. But Claire, the best detective in the world, has other ideas. Even as her other cases offer hints to Paul's fate—a missing girl in the grim East Village of the 1980s and an epidemic of missing miniature horses in Marin County-–Claire knows: the truth is never where you expect it, and love is the greatest mystery of all.
The follow-up to the Macavity Award winner Claire DeWitt and the City of the Dead, this intense and unusual crime novel comes from "a distinctive new voice in mystery fiction" (NPR's Fresh Air).
"Drug-taking, tarot-reading San Francisco detective Claire DeWitt is back . . . Claire is terrific at getting to the bottom of other people's problems but not so good at dealing with her own. But that's the peculiar charm of this punky sleuth and her offbeat entourage." —Booklist
"[A] mesmerizing character." —New Orleans Times-Picayune
"The Claire DeWitt novels are not so much noir mysteries as stories about the nature of mysteries themselves. The stories are wise, chilling, insightful and reeking with despair—and yet so beautifully written in an original, quirky style that it is difficult to resist them." —Associated Press
