Description
Anita Servi has given up her stressful job as a social worker and is now helping out her husband, Benno, doing simple jobs in his woodworking shop and spending time in the arty community under the New York Manhattan Bridge. Then Anita discovers the hidden body of a young man who has been brutally murdered. There are no clues to his identity or why he might have been killed - only a corpse and too many questions that demand answers. Finding the answer is something Anita knows how to do and now her search takes her from the Russian baths on the Lower East Side to the art galleries of the East Village. And what she uncovers is revealed in a startling denouement.
