Trespassers

Plot moving along.

Our murder victim's father disappeared when she was a child.
Our murder victim went to a seedy bar with an older guy.
Murder victim mixed up with gangs/organized crime? Steve thinks so.
Was the victim, the Stepford wife wannabe, actually out there investigating the disappearance of her father?  Not so Stepford-wife like, and not so boring. Antoinette is thrown back.
Breslin and McCann, cops on the same squad, bought out by gang guys?  Steve and Antoinette think it is possible.

Lots of nuts and bolts about a murder investigation--checking CCTV tape, walking the route the possible murderer walked, etc.

A page turner!

He became one of the most influential and admired British generals after a series of successes in Canada, West Africa, and Egypt, followed by a central role in modernizing the British Army in promoting efficiency. He served in Burma, the  Crimean War , the  Indian Mutiny , China, Canada and widely throughout Africa—including his  Ashanti  campaign (18...
