Private detective Michael Kelly returns in a lightning-paced,
intricately woven mystery that links a political cover up in
contemporary Chicago to the great Chicago Fire of 1871.
When an old girlfriend hires Kelly to tail her abusive husband,
Mike expects trouble of a domestic rather than a historical nature.
Life, however, is not so simple. The trail leads to a dead body in
an abandoned house on Chicago's North Side and then to places Kelly
would rather not go: including City Hall's fabled fifth floor,
where the mayor is feeling the heat. Kelly becomes embroiled in a
scam that stretches from today's politics back to the night Chicago
burned. Along the way, Kelly is framed for murder, before finally
facing a killer bent on rewriting history.
