"A little man with a huge heart and a huge chip on his shoulder, Gulliver Dowd swaggers into the crime fiction world and takes his place with the great investigators. Smart, vulnerable, wounded, heartbreakingly hopeful, I just adore his company." -- Louise Penny, New York Times bestselling author
When PI Gulliver Dowd locates a street kid’s missing dog, he thinks he’s simply done his good deed for the day. But when the boy is discovered unconscious and left for dead not far from Valentino Pier, Dowd sets out to find the attacker and why the boy was targeted. What Gulliver uncovers by way of bizarre clues—amidst threats of danger to himself and loved ones—leads him on his most curious case yet.
