Dead and Gone

The next installment of Joanna Schaffhausen''s critically acclaimed Detective Annalisa Vega series.

For Chicago police detective Annalisa Vega, Sam Tran¿s death presents an ominous puzzle. The ex-cop turned PI is found hanging from a cemetery tree with a message across his chest that suggests someone holds a murderous grudge against the police. Annalisa suspects the real answer lies in one of Tran¿s open cases. She believes he stumbled on a dark secret during his investigations and someone killed him to keep him quiet. Her own family harbors plenty of secrets, something Annalisa is reminded of when her brother turns out to be one of Sam¿s last clients.

Vinny Vega hired Tran to find a dangerous stalker on his daughter¿s college campus. Now Sam is dead and the stalker remains at large, with Annalisa¿s niece Quinn firmly in his sights.

To protect Quinn, Annalisa begins tracing Sam¿s steps back through his open cases, which include not only the campus stalker
