The son of an African American father and a Mexican mother, August grew up in Detroit's Mexicantown and joined the Detroit police only to be drummed out of the force by a conspiracy of corrupt cops and politicians. But August fought back; he took on the city and got himself a $12 million wrongful dismissal settlement that left him low on friends. He has just returned to the house he grew up in after a year away and quickly learns he has many scores to settle. It's not long before he's summoned to the palatial Grosse Point Estates home of business magnate Eleanore Paget. Powerful and manipulative, Paget wants August to investigate the increasingly unusual happenings at her private wealth management bank. But detective work is no longer August's beat, and he declines. A day later, Paget is dead of an apparent suicide--which August isn't buying for a minute. What begins as an inquiry into Eleanore Paget's death soon drags August into a rat's nest of Detroit's most dangerous criminals, from corporate embezzlers to tattooed mercenaries. From the wealthy suburbs to the near-post-apocalyptic remains of the bankrupt city's factory districts, August Snow is a fast-paced tale of murder, greed, sex, economic cyber-terrorism, race and urban decay in modern Detroit"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 3$aAn August Snow Novel 606 $aRacially mixed people$zMichigan$zDetroit$vFiction 606 $aRace relations$vFiction 606 $aFICTION / African American / Mystery & Detective$2bisacsh 608 $aMystery fiction.$2gsafd 615 0$aRacially mixed people 615 0$aRace relations 615 7$aFICTION / African American / Mystery & Detective. 676 $a813.6 686 $aFIC049050$2bisacsh 700 $aJones$b Stephen Mack$01244825 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910162665003321 996 $aAugust Snow$92887548 997 $aUNINA
