If anyone knows that it's Cass Raines.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eCass took a bullet two years ago after an incompetent colleague screwed up a tense confrontation with an armed suspect. Deeply traumatized, Cass resigned from the Chicago PD, leaving one less female African-American on the force. Now she's the head of a one-woman private investigation agency, taking on just enough work to pay the bills. But when the only father figure she's ever known, Father Ray Heaton, asks her to look into a recent spate of vandalism at his church, she readily agrees to handle it. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOnly hours later Cass is horrified to discover Father Ray's murdered body in the church confessional, a dead gangbanger sprawled out nearby. She knew Pop, as she called him, had ticked off plenty of people, from slumlords to politicians, with his uncompromising defense of the downtrodden. But a late-night random theft doesn't seem like much of a motive at a cash-strapped parish. The lead detective assigned to the case is all too eager to dismiss it as a burglary gone awry, just another statistic in a violent city. But Cass's instincts tell her otherwise, and badge or no badge, she intends to see justice done . . .\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kensington Publishing Corporation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/07\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781496748645\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368","brand":"Tracy Clark","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43361486012597,"sku":"9781496748645","price":15.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_740d7ac9-5f6a-455e-8a8b-8f5d20289858.jpg?v=1701190853","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/broken-places-9781496748645","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
