Seller's Description:
Fine in Fine jacket. Book First edition, February 1995, so stated with complete number line beginning with 1. Fine in fine dust jacket, not price clipped, in protective mylar cover. "NYPD detective Neil Hockaday is a recent probationary graduate of Abstinence U., where he was enrolled at the insistence of his new bride, Ruby, and his friend, private cop Davy Mogaill. On Ruby's first day back at her Madison Avenue job after a stint in avant-garde theater, one of the firm's partners calls in sick. Later that day, his naked, mutilated body is found nailed to the floor of his apartment. Hockaday would normally have pulled the case, but since he's still on administrative leave, it goes to noted homophobe King Kong Kowalski. Since the victim was gay, it's likely Kowalski won't conduct an aggressive investigation. Hockaday, concerned for Ruby's safety and desperately needing something to keep his mind off demon alcohol, begins his own inquiry under Davy Mogaill's private-eye ticket. But the case turns out to be much more complex than a simple passion killing, and Hockaday must face it from outside the force and without his beloved whiskey. The fourth Hockaday book continues a stellar series.."--Booklist.
