Fear The Living - No Sin Mysteries, #3

In the depression ravaged America of nineteen-thirty, five men are found dead in a crowded speakeasy, sitting serenely and unmarked in their chairs. The scene is nearly pastoral, yet those present are so severely traumatized that even a sadistic gangster is sobbing and unwilling to discuss what happened. A diverse, dysfunctional trio of detectives investigates, battling racism and themselves as they discover a crime that is grandiose and terrible in its conception.
