    When Paul Casablancas, Claire DeWitt#8217;s ex-boyfriend and a popular musician in the Bay Area scene is found dead in his apartment, his cherished guitars missing, the police are convinced it#8217;s a simple robbery. But Claire knows that nothing is ever simple. With the help of her new assistant Claude, Claire follows the clues, finding hints to Paul#8217;s fate in her other cases-especially a long-ago missing girl in New York#8217;s gritty East Village and a modern-day miniature horse theft in Marin. As visions of the past reveal the secrets of the present, Claire begins to understand the words of the enigmatic French detective Jacques Silette: #8220;The detective won#8217;t know what he is capable of until he encounters a mystery that pierces his own heart.#8221; And love, in all its forms, is the greatest mystery of all-at least to the world#8217;s greatest P.I.With a heroine hailed as #8220;a charmer#8221; (New York Times Book Review), from an author who #8220;reminds me why I fell in love with the genre#8221; (Laura Lippman), this is an addictive new adventure for an irresistible detective.

      Claire DeWitt is not your average private investigator. She has brilliant skills of deduction and is an ace at discovering evidence. But Claire also uses her dreams, omens, and mind-expanding herbs to help her solve mysteries, and relies on Detection-the only book published by the great and mysterious French detective Jacques Silette before his death.The tattooed, pot-smoking Claire has just arrived in post-Katrina New Orleans, the city she's avoided since her mentor, Silette's student Constance Darling, was murdered there. Claire is investigating the disappearance of Vic Willing, a prosecutor known for winning convictions in a homicide-plagued city. Has an angry criminal enacted revenge on Vic? Or did he use the storm as means to disappear? Claire follows the clues, finding old friends and making new enemies-foremost among them Andray Fairview, a young gang member who just might hold the key to the mystery.
