<div><B>When an old friend is murdered, Claire and her husband search for the killer</B><BR /><BR /> Ever since she got married, Claire Breslinsky has dreamed of living in the tree-lined Queens neighborhood where she grew up. But her husband is a cop, and cops aren&rsquo;t allowed to live in the precincts they police. When Johnny&rsquo;s transfer request finally comes through, Claire sets her sights on a beautiful, shabby old Victorian mansion. She is about to tour the house when she hears a half-forgotten voice: that of her old friend Tree, who lives across the street from the one Claire wants to buy. They hug, exchange numbers, and promise to see each other more often. They won&rsquo;t. Tree will be dead by morning.<BR /><BR /> A talented photographer with a Buddhist sense of cosmic justice, Claire can&rsquo;t help but suspect Tree&rsquo;s oddly cheerful husband of doing her in. With Johnny&rsquo;s help, she digs into the bizarre murder and finds that strange things have been happening lately on the shady side streets of Richmond Hill.</div>

<div><B>Home for the first time in a decade, a photographer is sucked into a murder investigation</B><BR /><BR /> Claire dozes in the hammock on the front porch of her family home in Queens, baking in the early morning heat, and hardly glances up when a car drives by. Ten years ago, she lost her brother, a rookie cop who made the mistake of trying to reason with a mugger, and she left home to travel the world. Now she is back, camera in hand. The children of the Breslinsky household&mdash;a cop, a photographer, a journalist, and a strange little boy&mdash;live in a state of carefully controlled chaos. But something is about to throw the whole neighborhood into complete disarray, the Breslinskys included.<BR /><BR /> The body of a young boy is found in the woods, molested, beaten, and murdered. Claire may have seen the killer driving away, and her search for him will put her family directly in the line of fire.</div>
