Minneapolis detectives Leo Magozzi and Gino Rolseth are
bored-ever since they solved the Monkeewrench case, the
Twin Cities have been in a murder-free dry spell, as people
no longer seem interested in killing one another. But when
elderly Morey Gilbert is found dead in the plant nursery he
runs with his wife, Lily, the crime drought ends-not with a
trickle, but with a torrent. Who would kill Morey, a man
without an enemy, a man who might as well have been a
saint? His tiny, cranky little wife is no help, and may
even be a suspect; his estranged son, Jack, an infamous
ambulance-chasing lawyer, has his own enemies; and his son-
in-law, former cop Marty Pullman, is so depressed over his
wife's death a year earlier he's ready to kill himself, but
not Morey. The number of victims-all elderly-grows, and the
city is fearful once again. Can Grace MacBride's cold case-
solving software program somehow find the missing link?
