Her death is chalked up as just another teenage hooker consumed by the streets. But to the grieving grandmother who raised her, Marisol’s homicide isn’t merely a statistic. To make matters worse, at the same time she’s burying one granddaughter she’s desperately trying to keep Marisol’s fourteen-year-old sister, Belicia, from succumbing to a similar fate. As a favor to a friend, former-soldier, ex-cop, and part-time private investigator Chauncey ‘Chance’ Means agrees to look into the killing.
