Raymond "Strong" Carlisle made his mark as an ace sideman to the
biggest names in R&B. Now he lies in the mud outside his home,
shot dead from behind. He's the first official casualty in a dirty
war for control of Rio Mirada: a low-rent "city in transition" at
the northernmost point of the San Francisco Bay, beset by drug
dealers, arsonists, squatters, and restless developers. And now a
murderer.
In Rio Mirada, the truth is in short supply. What's plentiful are
people with all the reasons in the world to make sure the murder of
Strong Carlisle remains unsolved. And the harder Detective Dennis
Murchison pushes for answers, the clearer it becomes that this
single, brutal homicide is just the tip of an iceberg in a town
where small-time crime and big-time corruption are about to collide
with explosive consequences.
