Description
Book SynopsisWhen Bunny Pederson disappears after being a bridesmaid at her best friend''s wedding, the police call for volunteers to help search for her. One of them, a travelling shirt salesman, discovers the woman''s amputated finger and the missing person inquiry becomes a murder investigation. In the absence of a body, the salesman, Justice Trip, is courted by the media - a position he''d learned to enjoy from a similar experience some years previously. Paris Murphy, a detective with the Minneapolis-St Paul''s Police Department, remembers Trip from her schooldays and isn''t convinced by his act as a caring citizen, especially when Bunny''s body is found in an area Trip had visited. The case isn''t strictly in her jurisdiction, but it is a welcome distraction from her failing marriage and her guilt over an affair she knows isn''t really over.
Justice Trip was ugly, still lived with his invalid father in a trailer park and his c.v. was a repetitive litany of firings from dead-end
