Summary:
"Tough, smart, and struggling to stay afloat,
August
Snow
is the embodiment of Detroit. 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."--From publisher.
