Here’s the set-up:
First book in the popular Frank Pavlicek series.
One shot. One fatal error.
..
Thirteen years ago, Frank Pavlicek left the NYPD under less than ideal circumstances.
..
Now, the divorced father of a teenage daughter, he works as a private investigator in Charlottesville, Virginia, where he indulges his passion for falconry – and tries to live outside the shadow of his past.
..
Frank is hunting with his red-tailed hawk, Armistead, when he finds it. A teenage boy’s body – barely concealed behind a pile of brush in a part of the forest Frank recently visited with his daughter, Nicole. It’s a truly gruesome crime scene – one of the many things Frank doesn’t miss about working homicide in the big city.
..
But what Frank finds in the dead boy’s wallet is even more disturbing: Nicole’s phone number, scribbled in ink on the edge of a bill. He pockets the evidence and flees. Days later, his daughter is in jail. His past is coming back to haunt him. And his reputation – and life – are on the line…
“Pavlicek is a breath of fresh air in the field of private eye fiction.” –Jeffery Deaver
Best First Novel-Anthony, Shamus, and Agatha Award Nominee
Storytelling as sharp and strong as talons. –RICK RIORDAN – #1 New York Times Bestselling Author
Aside from good writing, an interesting plot, and the unusual aspect of the falconry, it’s nice to see someone come along with a new P.I. who is not drowning in wisecracks. Andy Straka has managed to avoid the more obvious cliches of the genre while continuing to pay, homage to the conventions of it. Straka should be proud. –ROBERT J. RANDISI, Founder, Private Eye Writers of America
