After more than a decade of homelessness, alcoholism, and mental illness in Chicago, Angie's brother, Winston Harrison Jr., has finally completed a program, adhered to medication, and quit drinking. Winston was scared straight by the bizarre murder of his only friend out on the streets, Petya, a former KGB linguist and white collar criminal. Against her better judgment, Angie gets dragged into another investigation by her brother's grief. The Harrison siblings quickly discover that Petya was a man with many secrets and just as many enemies as Chicago turns into a veritable international convention of spies. Surprisingly, the most dangerous of all of those spooks may be some rogue "angel" organization with no clear affiliation recognizable only by odd ring that they wear. Along the way, Angie dares to hope that she has her first best friend back, and Winston's sanity and sobriety are constantly tested. Will Angie and Winston be able to solve this mystery by rushing in where angels fear to tread? Or will they join Petya in a potter's field? Lake Street Renaissance will have you guessing to the very end.
