When Rabbi Meltzer and the President of Grantham’s synagogue, Mr. Tepperman, knock on Benny’s office door, they weren't looking to sell raffle tickets. Of that much, Benny was sure. It turns out that they need his help as a private investigator in tracking down a missing lawyer who has disappeared with the life savings of half of the city's Jewish community. His new clients promise to pay him $500 for his work, but Benny knows he’ll likely never see a dime of it. What can he do? It’s summer in the city and it's going to be a hot one. With complications and bodies piling up. Welcome to #5 in the acclaimed Benny Cooperman series!
