About this audiobook
Chicago, 1925. The numbers don’t lie, but the killer does.
Banker Walter Sinclair is dead, branded an embezzler who stole a fortune. His widow claims he was an honest man framed to hide a darker truth. With her family facing ruin and the insurance company refusing to pay, she turns to O'Malley Investigations.
Publicly, Paddy O'Malley is the detective and Kit Ashworth is the secretary. Privately, Kit is the brilliant mind who knows that financial ledgers tell stories. She sees what the police missed: Walter wasn't stealing money—he was hunting it.
Following a paper trail from marble bank vaults to the corrupt offices of City Hall, Kit and Paddy uncover a massive laundering scheme run by Alderman "Big Tim" Flanagan. In a city where judges are bought and witnesses vanish, the partners must risk everything to expose the conspiracy.
They have the evidence. Flanagan has the power. Now, Kit and Paddy must prove that the truth is worth dying for.
