Opis

No relationship is so fraught with ambivalence as the one we have with our aging parents. Chief Joe Silva, second son in a large and loving family, finds himself drawn into a decades old drama when his ninety-year-old father brings the entire family together for one last reunion--to dispel a dark cloud that has hung over his family for decades. To do this the aging patriarch has had to persuade the two youngest children to return to the family after decades of silence and separation. Reluctantly, Joe travels with his partner, Gwen, and her daughter, Jennie, to join in the family gathering, but he does so with a sense of foreboding. Last Call for Justice brings together Joe's rambunctious brother and sisters and their partners in a weekend of revelations and discoveries, and a demand for justice once denied. Steady and decent, Joe Silva faces the greatest challenge of his career as a policeman when he faces a conspiracy within his own family to bring another to justice, an attempt that brings one to near death and another to jail.
