When the son of Reverend Wallace Brown goes missing, Dominique is assigned to the case. Believing that the boy has simply run away, Broddie instead focuses on solving a high-profile murder that he hopes will advance his career. Everything changes when his own daughter goes missing. Broddie suspects that there might be a link between the two disappearances and, with time running out, he must do whatever it takes to bring both children home. This gripping detective mystery takes readers to a pivotal moment in one of America's once great cities from the perspective of a troubled father, trying to find his place in stopping its inevitable downfall"-- Back cover.
