Or so he thought -- until the day, ten years later, when he opened the Daily News and saw Miranda's photo staring out at him under the headline \"STRIPPER MURDERED.\" John wants to find out how Miranda ended up stripping for a living. What happened to Miranda's college roommate, Jocelyn, who also dropped out when Miranda did? And just how was Miranda involved with small-time drug dealer Murco Khachadurian? The closer John gets to the answers, the more dangerous and violent the case becomes, until a bloody assault on someone close to him leads John to a shocking discovery and a shattering face-off with the person responsible.\nRichard Aleas is the pseudonym of a Shamus Award-nominated mystery writer who lives in New York City.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1594141118\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1594141118.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:richard-aleas\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Former library book with the usual stamps, stickers and labels.
