Homicide Detective Gideon Maguire's second partner has been murdered in less than a week. Now he must solve two murders and a child's kidnapping before he is arrested for a crime he didn't commit. A mob enforcer has a crisis of conscience and turns on his masters. When his wife and daughter are brutally murdered, he kidnaps a drug kingpin's daughter in an intricate plot for revenge. The kidnapping results in a series of attacks on registered sex offenders by gangsters hoping to find the girl and cash in on a huge reward. The incompetence of a mob boss's heir apparent results in palace intrigues to discredit the young man. Vigilante torture and murder, extrajudicial executions, rigged dogfights, teenage sexting, murder, fabricated evidence, predatory pedophiles and a transvestite chanteuse are all involved. Nobody is innocent. They are all presumed guilty. Absolutely loved the intricate plot twists ...
