Abstract:
After being fired from his job of thirty-three years, a reticent financial analyst returns to work the following day and murders his boss. He then makes his escape and effectively vanishes without a trace.

Five years later, Frank Taylor, an African-American private investigator who once worked as a security guard for the same company, receives a proposal from the new CEO. The proposition: find the fugitive killer and bring him in.

With the offer of a large sum of money, plus the prospect of earning a reputation in the field, Frank is lured into a spiraling black hole of vengeance and betrayal, murder and pursuit.
