From Thomas Perry, the bestselling author of the Jane Whitefield series, comes a whip-smart and lethally paced standalone novel. Sid and Ronnie Abel are a first-rate husband-and-wife detective team. Ed and Nicole Hoyt are married assassins-for-hire living. The two couples have little in common - until they are both hired to do damage control on the same murder case. The previous spring, a body was recovered from one of the city's overwhelmed storm sewers. The victim was identified as James Ballantine, a middle-aged African-American who worked as a research scientist for a prestigious company. But two bullets to the back of the head looked like nothing if not foul play. Now, with the case turning cold, Ballantine's former employers bring in the Abels to succeed where the police have failed, while the Hoyts' mysterious contractors want to make sure that the facts about Ballantine's death stay hidden.
