"The bomb was meant for him, but killed his wife... So Richard Straight, ex-cop, is back on the beat, but this time he's working for the mob. Together with Coady, Straight's strong-arm--huge, menacing, and powerful--they take a contract in Oklahoma. The hit--Art Tabor, a jeweler. The angle-make it look like suicide. Easy enough-until they are pursued by two hard-nosed P.I.'s closing in on their tracks." Nominated for the Edgar Allan Poe "Best First Mystery Award."
