The first installment in the Carlotta Carlyle series introduces readers to ex-Boston cop and private investigator Carlotta Carlyle, who recognizes trouble when it appears—like the elderly lady offering cash to locate her missing brother. After being dismissed from the Boston police for insubordination, Carlotta has become a private investigator, handling cases from lost pets to serious crimes. Standing six feet tall with striking red hair, she operates her business from home, where unexpected clients are rare. However, when the genteel Miss Margaret Devens approaches her about her brother Eugene's disappearance, Carlotta decides to take the case, despite her financial struggles and light caseload. She remembers Eugene from their time at Green and White Cab, thinking the investigation will be straightforward. But things take a turn when two thugs targeting her client send Miss Devens to the hospital. As Carlotta delves deeper, she uncovers that Eugene's involvement is far more dangerous than anticipated. Determined to find him, she is willing to work with the police, assume different identities, and even return to driving a cab to solve the mystery before it’s too late.
