A giant developer sees it not as an irreplaceable wetland, but as a prime shopping centre site. And lawyer Daffy Abbott, Toronto PI Stitch Robinson’s best friend, is determined to stop them. A familiar clash between environmentalists and developers turns nasty when a town councillor changes his vote to allow the development to go forward. And then disappears. What begins as a missing person investigation for Stitch turns into a murder. And that’s just the beginning, as Stitch is drawn into a murky – and dangerous – world of money laundering, offshore banking, thugs and strippers.
