When Spike's restaurant is taken over under a predatory loan agreement, PI Sunny Randall has a chance to return a favor. She begins digging into the life of the hedge fund manager who screwed Spike over, and finds this new enemy may have the backing of even badder criminals. At the same time Sunny's cop contact Lee Farrell asks her to intervene with his niece, a college student who reported being the victim of a crime but seems to know more than she is telling police. What appear to be two disparate cases are united by a common factor, and one thing is clear: Sunny has been poking a hornet's nest from two sides, and all hell is about to break loose. -- adapted from jacket
