When prosecutor Vicki Allegretti arrives at a rowhouse to meet a confidential informant, she finds herself in the wrong place at the wrong time -- and is almost shot to death. She barely escapes with her life, but cannot save the two others gunned down before her disbelieving eyes. Stunned and heartbroken, Vicki tries to figure out how a routine meeting on a minor case became a double homicide.

Vicki's suspicions take her to Devil's Corner, a city neighborhood teetering on the brink of ruin -- thick with broken souls, innocent youth, and a scourge that preys on both. But the deeper Vicki probes, the more she becomes convinced that the murders weren't random and the killers were more ruthless than she thought.

When another murder thrusts Vicki together with an unlikely ally, she buckles up for a wild ride down a dangerous street -- and into the cross-hairs of a conspiracy as powerful as it is relentless.

Excellent mystery - keeps you guessing until the end. The narrator was one of the best I've heard. She was able to do many different types of female voices and not too bad of a job with the male voices either.

My only observation is that I think the author could have ended a bit sooner. One of the mistakes that I think many contemporary authors make is that they feel they have to tie up every loose end. I think the book would have been just as good without the final scene with the parents. I won't say more for fear of spoiling.

Don't miss this one, though if you like mysteries. Be aware though that it's not a typical "lawyer" book. I don't remember one scene that was actually in a courtroom.
