Hat Trick

Psychologist Blaize McCue and boyfriend Detective Stephanos Zoloski go for a 5 am jog and stumble over a toothless, handless, corpse. "Look Ma no hands," takes on a whole new meaning, especially when the body is identified by her good friend, Lon, as his missing lover, Ken Woods. When the corpse's hands and teeth turn up in Lon's gym locker, Lon becomes the prime suspect of both the FBI and Zoloski. Warned by Zoloski to stay out of the case, Blaize can't help diving in when Lon begs for help. With a compulsive-obsessive's need to finish what she starts, Blaize can't quit. Not even getting whacked on the head, or Zoloski's threats to end their relationship keep Blaize from plowing forward, loyal to the end. As she delves deeper, she discovers FBI, Treasury, and DEA agents littering the sidewalk like worms after a rainstorm--and they're not sharing secrets with each other--or her. Following a trail as twisted as San Francisco's Lombard Street, Blaize discovers a world of cross-dressing men, Middle-Eastern macho, illegal drugs, and money laundering. In a race against the clock, it'll take a Hat Trick to save Lon, her relationship with Zoloski, and in the end, herself..
