As I drive, I obsess over still another death. One that hasn't occurred yet. But it will.
Soon.
Nora Watts is recovering. Recovering from her past and the fact that she killed two people in self-defence. Her tentative relationship with her biological daughter is strained and she is struggling with the imminent death, from cancer, of her friend and mentor Sebastian Crow.
When she's approached by a man claiming to know her late father, she is unprepared for the memories that this encounter brings back. Her father committed suicide when Nora was a child, leaving her and her sister to the mercy of endless foster homes. What happened to her father all those years ago has always haunted her and everything that's gone wrong in Nora's life can be traced back to that moment - his abandonment.
Heading to Detroit to search for the truth about his death, Nora expects to discover a reason behind his suicide. Instead, she finds more questions than answers.
But trouble always follows Nora, and it's found her in Detroit, a city that is as broken as she is.
