Some towns die of old age, some of corruption from within, some by invasion from without, but it is a special secret sauce composed of all these poisons that have brought on the long slow death of the New England port of New Harbor. For the citizens who remain, the physical and social decay is a fact of life they've learned to live with like rats in the ruins. To them, the notion of civic order and pride is a bad joke, but one they choose to laugh at rather than cry over. It takes a special kind of private detective to work this town, and Alex B. Hynde, is just that kind of dick. Al knows his town, knows how to play the game. He knows a bad joke needs a jester, and he's happy to play the role, happy to tell the tale ... until he meets Randi Barnes and things get a little out of hand.
