Boone takes a call from a client seeking help locating a missing person. And not just any missing person.

Frank Boland wants Boone to find his father, who abandoned his family on Frank's fifth birthday some fifty years earlier. Boone thinks about his own father, who abandoned Boone's mother and infant Boone.

Worse, this case dredges up memories of Boone's childhood, memories that he would rather forget, and his own guilt over his son's estrangement. He takes the case, having no way of knowing this will put him on a trail more convoluted than anything he has faced before.

At the same time, Marianne is retained by Sara Bixby, an insurance adjuster for Mutual of New York and past client of the agency. A dealership in rare luxury automobiles has filed a claim for $3 Million Dollars over the loss of a one of a kind Bugatti in a freak accident.

Marianne jokes with Sara about an earlier insurance fraud case that resulted in her being shot. Neither of them can possibly foresee how her jest will impact them both, especially Sara.

Boone finds himself in one dead-end after another, with a client who seems to be after something very different from finding his father. Marianne's skills in dark web research are tested to the limit, only to reveal a nexus between Boone's search and Marianne's investigation, exposing them both to possible danger.
