This thinking person's thriller completes the trilogy begun with The Disappearance and New Guys Around the Block. Imaru's struggle to rehabilitate his alcoholic mother and to get away from his street-kid background sees him, a black delivery boy, getting tangled up in the affairs of the high-class, white Maldoon family on their vast estate. A demanding novel that will not be hurried.
