BROKEN is a hard-boiled tale of betrayal, forbidden desire, and the kind of secrets that don't stay buried.
In a West Palm Beach, Florida neighborhood where everybody knows everybody-and everyone tells the whole truth, sometimes-fourteen-year-old Rosie Salvo is found dead in a secluded town preserve that the residents use as a dump. A discarded washing machine, dumped there by a local resident, leads to the discovery of her body. But the scene doesn't look like an accident. It looks staged.
Fear settles over the neighborhood like a fog. Doors lock earlier. Whispers travel faster than the truth. Everyone has a theory, and every theory points to someone else. Was a killer prowling the streets? Was the murderer living right next door? And if Rosie was only the beginning, who would be next?
The West Palm Beach Police have little to go on, so they call in Lester Caine, a retired New York City homicide detective with twenty-five years under his belt. Lester is Florida's top private investigator-a man who knows that every witness has a secret and every secret has a price.
As Caine digs into Rosie's final days, he uncovers a rotten tangle of lust, greed, power, deception, and vengeance. The deeper he goes, the more dangerous the case becomes. In this town, innocence is a luxury nobody can afford, and redemption is nowhere in sight.
Because when the truth finally comes knocking, everyone involved is already BROKEN.
