The discovery of a body floating in New York City’s East River leads to the re-opening of the murder of Lacy Wooden, an aspiring young dancer. As NYPD Lieutenant James Francis Moran and his team follow each clue, they are brought face-to-face with some of the city’s most influential powerbrokers. As each layer of the case is peeled away, the secret life of each of these individuals is revealed, as well as their mutually unbeknown connection to the deceased woman. Finding the murderer against this backdrop of characters, while at the same time not ruffling feathers, is a fine line Moran must walk. This, and dealing with a gravely ill wife and his own personal issues, all add up to what seems to be an insurmountable task for the detective. About the Author: Joseph Steven, the author of several novels, is a former New York trial defense attorney and listed in the Who’s Who of America. He resides in Southern California with his wife and is working on his next novel.
