ISBN: 1550229095 ISBN-13: 9781550229097 Publisher: ECW Press OUR PRICE: $13.46 Product Type: Paperback - Other Formats Published: November 2009 Annotation: The seedy massage parlors, gang-ridden housing projects, and expensive mafia-run clubs of Toronto provide the backdrop for this riveting crime story featuring Detective Gord Bergeron. Plagued by unanswered questions in his personal life and at work, Gord immerses himself in the investigation of a death that may be terrorist-related. "Did the Arab-looking man who fell 25 floors to his death jump, or was he pushed?" Sharon MacDonald may know the answer, but she is knee-deep in her own problems--namely, her house arrest, the impending arrival of her drug lord ex-boyfriend, and the attention of the preternaturally good-looking Ray. It's only a matter of time until Sharon and Gord's paths cross in this fast-paced mystery. |

| Publisher Description: The joke? Toronto thinks it's the centre of some multicultural universe, always bragging about how people come from every part of the world to live there. The punch line? Some of them are coming to commit crimes. So yeah, Sharon MacDonald's got a problem -- Ray; he's too good-looking. But she knows what everybody knows. The whole world might be coming here, but this is nowhere. Detective Gord Bergeron has problems too. Maybe it's his new partner, Ojibwa native Detective Armstrong. Or maybe it's the missing ten-year-old girl, or the unidentified torso dumped in an alley behind a motel, or what looks like corruption deep within the police force. |
