Synopsis

Leo’s boyhood hero, Henry “Heck” Sundstrom was larger than life. Lately, however Heck’s life has been spiraling out of control. First the honeymoon boating accident that killed Heck’s son and new daughter-in- law, Allison. And now the big man himself was dying—struck down by delivery truck in a seedy section of Seattle. As he starts to investigate, Leo begins to wonder if Allison went down with the ship. And whether, with the aid of his, aging legmen, “the Boys,” he can prove they’re on the trail of a “black widow” who may be less “late” and more lethal than anyone ever suspected.

Goodreads review by Amanda
