A man like you who takes odd jobs? Do you allow people their secrets, or do you just want to hang onto yours?" Then she let herself out, closing the wooden door gently behind her. Her shadow moved across the frosted glass, and she was gone. But not for long, because Smokey and Laura soon join forces to find the answers, uncover the secrets, and to weather together--and separately--one of the darkest times in recent American history. With A.
