MOUTH OF THE WOLF

Los Angeles, 1932, and a town recovering from the chaos of the Olympic Games. What do you do if a respected paragon of LA society asks you to investigate the theft of her dog? But then, after the violence of your previous case, maybe searching for an old woman's pooch has its own rewards. A simple case, easy money. Who would expect that the lost dog wasn't what any reasonable person would expect? As a private investigator, you need to be careful what you sign up for. Even the most straight-forward of cases can turn into a mind-bending puzzle, especially when your client gets murdered before an investigation can even start.
Set in the roasting dust of Los Angeles, this case turns from an investigative cliché into a dangerous game of pin the tail on the donkey. Faced with an impossible murder and the theft of a valuable piece of ancient art, what started as easy money soon turns into a young private eye paying a high price.
