Former homicide detective Kosuke Iwata is hiding from his past . . .
Five years ago, he lost his family. Now he may have found his redemption.
Living in Los Angeles and working as a private detective, he spends his days spying on unfaithful spouses and his nights with an unavailable woman.
And yet he can't forget the family he lost in Tokyo.
But everything changes when a figure from his old life appears at his door, demanding his help.
Meredith Nicole, a transgender woman and his sister-in-law, were found strangled on the lonely railroad tracks behind Skid Row.
He soon discovers that the devil is playing in the City of Angels and Meredith's death was not a hate crime the police believe it is. Iwata knows that risking life and the future is the only way to silence the demons of the past.
Reluctantly returning to the hazardous existence which he has just escaped, Iwata discovers a seedy world of corruption, exploitation and murder - and the river flowing through Las underbelly, dusty frontier land of Mexican and deep into his own past.
