The Shamus Awardโwinning mystery series continues as a reporterโs investigation into a mysterious illness leads him to a deadly conspiracy.
When he hears residents of a Newark neighborhood are getting sickโand even dyingโfrom a strange disease, investigative reporter Carter Ross dives into the storyโso deep he comes down with the illness himself. With even more motivation to track down the source of the disease, Carter soon hits upon a nearby construction site. But when the projectโs developer is found dead, and his mob ties surface, Carter knows heโs looking at a story much biggerโand with even more dangerous consequencesโthan an environmental hazard.
Back in the newsroom, Carter has his hands full with his current girlfriend and with the paperโs newest eager intern, not to mention his boss and former girlfriend Tina Thompson, who has some news for Carter thatโs about to make tangling with the mob seem simple by comparison.
