Book Description
A young, handsome handyman is found dead. Clues and hunches lead Detective Captain Sam Arbuckle from the gigolo’s death to a hit and run accident he investigated 25 years before – or was it an accident? A second look into the files sends Arbuckle from the bleak North Side of Fort Worth, to Viet Nam, to the outskirts of an eastern Oklahoma chop shop where a quarter century of revenge, schemes, and greed culminate. A colorful cast of bored, rich housewives, penny-anti thieves, drug dealers, and a duo of young, ambitious detectives challenge Arbuckle into solving one last case before retirement. His plan was retire quietly, but an unmatched fingerprint from his first case tweaks Arbuckle’s pride in his lifelong career record. No big deal. Just one more case to close.
