Matt Scudder and his friend Elaine, meet the Holtzmann's at a gallery. They like the wife but there is something about the husband that they cannot put their finger on. When he is shot and killed, while making a phone call from a booth, Matt gets involved, and with more than the murder.

Another in a long line of fantasic Matthew Scudder novels, each one delving farther into the psyche of one of the greatest detectives ever created.

Mathew Scudder, the maverick recovering alcoholic detective takes on a truly baffling and dangerous case. Very nice twist at the end.

Didn't read this one myself - "There are no rules to life, love and death. Those who fly the highest can crash the hardest - like successful yuppie lawyer Glenn Holtzmann, randomely blown away by a deranged derellict at a phone boot."
