Joe Tofuri is a licensed Massachusetts private detective. He embarks on a bevy of intertwining cases during the Christmas season of 1995. First, he is retained by a wealthy businessman to find and retrieve his young son who was kidnapped by a drug dealer. The "search for the truth" comes to bear in two other cases involving domestic abuse, assault & battery, and the horrible vehicular homicide of a young boy. In the midst of these investigations, Joe takes on another case involving the search for a stolen mysterious briefcase taken by a "Biker" gang. Entering the dark and dangerous biker world, he uncovers an unlikely clue that leads him to a potential eyewitness in the vehicular homicide case. And through it all, Joe must fight the most dangerous entities of them all... his own inner demons.

March 12, 2003: It's amazing how much outstanding reading can be jam-packed into such a small book! I could NOT put it down. I never realized PIs worked for lawyers and did this type of work. The author's description of his surroundings was something very, very special. When he described the snow and the rain, I felt cold and wet. When he described the Italian food, I felt hungry. The ending to this book left me reeling! It is a MUST read!!!
