A beautiful woman paid it with her body. A seedy lawyer used somebody else's money. It's the vig - the exorbitant interest mob loan sharks take on their money. Now, in the city by the Bay, everyone has to pay...
Down-and-out-lawyer Rusty Ingraham left behind a murdered woman and a houseboat splattered with blood. All the evidence said Ingraham was in San Francisco Bay. Dead. But a friend of Ingraham's, former cop and prosecutor Dismas Hardy, isn't so sure. And Hardy has to find out, because a stone-cold killer, now paroled, once threatened to kill Ingraham and Dismas Hardy both.
Now, to save his own skin, Dismas must face down liars and killers on both sides of the law. From mob foot soldiers to brokenhearted lovers to renegade cops, a dozen lives are tied to the fate of Rusty Ingraham - and the payback has only just begun...
Dismas Hardy, onetime San Francisco prosecutor, is currently co-owner of the Little Shamrock, a Bay Area bar. One night former coworker Rusty Ingraham drops in and tells Hardy that a criminal the two of them sent to jail years back is out of prison and gunning for them. After the body of a young woman is discovered on Ingraham's houseboat and Ingraham goes missing, Hardy knows he has to find some answers. David Colacci doesn't disappoint as he creates a variety of original characters. With deft timing and singular character voices, Colacci's performance switches from laid-back to ominous as John Lescroart's gritty sequel to Dead Irish careens to its gripping conclusion. S.J.H.
