“Clever plotting, unexpected twists, high-octane action” make the second Harry Corbin novel “a must-read” from the ex-cop and author of Bodies in Winter (Booklist).
NYPD detective Harry Corbin hasn’t been allowed to work on a homicide case for almost a year after uncovering corruption among his colleagues and superiors. So when a young woman’s body is found dumped and mutilated on a sweltering New York morning, Corbin jumps at the chance to redeem his career and solve the case. But more than his reputation is on the line as the investigation tales him on a journey into the dark and secretive world of illegal immigrants, where human beings are exploited and life is cheap.
The compelling second installment in the Corbin and Bentibi Mysteries.
