The first Delilah West novel by Maxine O'Callaghan honored by the Private Eye Writers of America with their Lifetime Achievement Award.

Ex-cop Delilah West is working as a PI with her husband Jack when he's killed while investigating a missing person's case. Grief-stricken and enraged, she becomes obsessed with finding the killer...only to wake up drugged in a skid-row hotel room with him lying beside her with a knife in his back. It's the perfect frame, nailing her for an obvious revenge killing. Now she's on the run...living on a razor's edge trying to avoid capture while searching for the murderers who've destroyed her life.
