Always a problem when I wait too long to write about a book. What I remember about this one:

Billy, long time homeless, is found dead inside the garage of a woman who denies knowing him. Just found a place to get out of the weather and died there. As the police investigate, however, they find more complications than were originally apparent.

As with many other of her books, Walters makes use of newspaper articles and other documents to fill in blanks, but they don't constitute a large part of the book. It's a complex story with many interesting characters.
