Publisher's Synopsis
John Barnes' suspenseful new novel focuses on rich contractor Paul Zeffer's last 12 days on earth. He's physically huge, muscled and mean. His specialty: harming people his victims love. Then he's murdered. The suspect list is long. Police struggle to find a killer. They ask private Investigator Stanley Deutsch to take a look. Deutsch uses counter-intuitive logic to uncover the killer (or killers). The unexpected conclusion will leave you gasping.
