Twelve-year-old Parker Bradshaw becomes heir to billions, when his elderly father is murdered, but the old man doesn't want to stay dead. Parker is blanketed by intrigue, as powerful men try to wrest control of the fortune and get rid of the boy who stands in their way. A young, black detective is Parker's only hope, but he doesn't make it easy for her to help, as Boston's power brokers turn against both of them. Time is running short, and Parker clings to his soul, and his life, by a thread.
