Description
Introduction by David Corbett, Author of New York Times Notable Book, Done for a DimeAfter losing his aerospace job--a casualty of the "peace dividend" brought by the end of the Cold War--52-year-old Jack Liffey still fights his personal wars: with the bottle, his ex-wife, and his loneliness after losing custody of his precocious and beloved daughter, Maeve. Before he can surrender to a life of alcoholic cynicism, an unexpected vocation enters his life when a mysterious woman from Mexico hires Jack to find her missing daughter.
Suddenly, Jack is dealing with a real estate developer's goons, powerful politicians, and-perhaps most dangerous-his increasing feelings for a former nun who may be the key to the entire case. Armed with a small handgun and unwavering determination, Jack must rescue someone else's daughter so he can redeem his own sense of purpose--and fatherhood.
The Jack Liffey series takes readers deep into the many unexplored communities, enclaves and cultures of Los Angeles that sometimes co-exist, sometimes clash, but always surprise. Fans of Michael Connelly will fall deep into the fast-paced, unpredictable, and dangerous world John Shannon creates.
