Review

Π²Π‚ΡšTwo-time Edgar winner Mcdonald . . . has created another complicated, crusty, engaging character. Fascinating.Π²Π‚Ρœ Π²Π‚β€œ*Booklist

*Π²Π‚ΡšFlynnΠ²Π‚β„’s repartee is state of the art: rangily allusive, deceptively gentle. And McdonaldΠ²Π‚β„’s blend of parody, farce, and sentiment . . . is rich, yet spare, edgily appealing.Π²Π‚Ρœ --*Kirkus*

With every lead going nowhere, FlynnΠ²Π‚β„’s most dizzying logic is put to the test, but the clue he needs could be somewhere in his own murky past.
