Publisher Description

After a history of drug abuse and prostitution, Munch Mancini now works as an automobile mechanic, work she loves and does so well that even her male coworkers acknowledge her skill, if somewhat grudgingly. She has a daughter, a little girl left in her care by a dying friend. And she is about to marry a police officer she loves deeply.

It all comes crashing down when a friend in the police department calls to tell her that her fiancé is dead, shot down by his fellow cops in a drug bust gone wrong. Refusing to believe the explanation she is given, Munch goes on a dangerous mission, first for knowledge, and then for revenge.

About the Author

Barbara Seranella (1956–2007) grew up in Pacific Palisades, California. After a restless childhood that included running away from home at the age of fourteen, joining a hippie commune in the Haight, and riding with outlaw motorcycle clubs, she decided to settle down and do something normal—she became an auto mechanic, and that was the occupation she chose for her heroine when she switched from fixing cars to writing about them. She later became a member of the Orange County, Los Angeles, and San Diego chapters of Sisters in Crime and the Mystery Writers of America.
