Wilf Anthony Gaugain has little to be happy about in his life. He’s a third-rate journalist with no job satisfaction. In the throes of middle age and a failed marriage, he struggles to kick his life back on track.
When Gaugain witnesses a brutal crime, he views it as a career opportunity and dives headlong into a reckless investigation. He soon ends up in the middle of a nasty affair where nothing is safe.
In the gloomy, rainy streets of Capital City, Gaugain fights to dig his way out, while at the same time he strives to cope with the remnants of his devolving life.

I can't leave a review because I won't be finishing this book.
It was offered as a "free book" for signing up to the author's newsletter. It sounded interesting, and I like "free" as much as the next guy. A link took me to where I could "download my free BOOK." I followed directions, downloaded the book, and began reading.
To my surprise and chagrin, I had received all of the first 4 chapters, and nothing more. So much for my "free book!"
Therefore..........................this story will remain unfinished.
