Johanna Wilder and her partner, Ruth Wilson, have a small private investigating business in Portland, Maine. They may not get rich in their work tracking down errant husbands, missing neices, and runaway teenagers, but at least it's a living. And for Johanna, it's a way to escape her past. A simple job, taken on as a favor to a new friend, plunges Johanna into the very life she has been trying so hard to forget: a life that is peopled with Russian emigres and dissidents - in which deceit, betrayal, and death are never far away.
