Beautiful women, gun molls, street weasels and hoods of all kind. Each layer of evidence Ram uncovers only leads to more mystery and confusion. Bea, his new secretary makes for more turmoil within Ram's thoughts, plus Mandy, a gangster's wife who wants him to hide her from her husband. In desperation Ram turns to an influential ex-client of his who owes him a favor to find Luv. A page turner is Ram Slade, Shamus . . .
