"Prospect Avenue is nothing more than a dirt road ending in bulrushes behind a roadhouse. It's a popular rendezvous point along the Detroit River for bootleggers like Jack McCloskey. But there's more than just rum-running going on these days; there's a growing trade in opium, and people, as McCloskey finds out when he rescues the survivor of a bad smuggling deal. As if this wasn't enough, McCloskey is also trying to get his dinner club back on its feet and his girlfriend, the indomitable Vera Maude, has a wedding to plan, and it's not her own. He's trying to hold things together while police corruption and domestic strife threaten to pull it all apart. A series of murders brings powerful groups into conflict and may drag McCloskey into the fray."--Publisher.
