On their second case, Qigiq and Kandy are loaned to the Traffic Division to investigate an early morning hit-and-run. By a motorcycle.
The victim is an elderly Asian woman. Witnesses suggest all “accidents” aren’t created equal.
Then the Captain delivers a new assignment: an affluent Bay Area lawyer is missing. The man’s wife stomps into their office screaming about a contract she found hidden in their home computer. A contract with a seven-figure payout, and an incriminating Exhibit A
Following the trail of both the motorcycle rider and the lawyer with Kandy complaining, “we’re homicide detectives, there should be a body,” leads to a vintage motorcycle club where lips are sealed, a yacht harbor where riddles run deep, and a roadside confrontation that ends with a splash. As the trails twist they soon find one thing in common:
A violist named Mylin. Young. Attractive. And illegal.
