Summary:
Out of one web and into another? Charlie has accepted that the only way out of the mafia is outlined in chalk. And although her boss may have changed, the rules are the same. Do what it takes to stay alive. Keep your head down. Don?t stir up trouble. So long as she does that, nobody gets hurt. And more importantly, Everett Daniels stays alive. But apparently that?s easier said than done. Because when the boss?s murder sparks a city-wide turf war and Charlie is tasked with removing the competition for good, and she?s going to have to stir up a whole lot of trouble to get out of this alive. It?s been a year since Everett watched the woman he loved die at the hands of the Lazlo Cristiani. A year of sleepless nights and alcohol washed nightmares. A year of rebuilding his life, one piece at a time. Now working as a private detective, Everett has been tasked with proving the Mafia Commissions? involvement with a recent string of murders. And he?ll start by learning more about Lazlo?s new companion, the alluring and hauntingly familiar woman known only as Esther. -- from the back cover.
