February in Portland, Oregon, and what many are calling the Storm of the Century has left hundreds of abandoned cars and buses clogging the icy streets, shutting down the entire metroplex. Eddie Lombard, a tough, hard-boiled private eye, is facing another kind of storm. When Ericka Holland, Rikki to her friends, walked in off of those snowy streets and through his office door, a tempest followed hard on her heels. Rikki wasn't just in trouble, she was trouble.

Overwhelmed by Rikki's beauty and touched by her vulnerability, Eddie immediately throws himself into her rescue with as little regard for the consequences as someone jumping into the middle of raging floodwaters in order to save a drowning victim. But as he soon learns, those waters run deep and in their depths lie hidden dangers-dangers that threaten to pull him and everyone he loves under.

Faced with overwhelming odds from corrupt politicians and an international drug cartel who all want to see Rikki dead, Eddie reaches out to his friend, legendary FBI missing persons expert, Jake Moriarity. Jake helps him see that there is more happening than what is immediately clear, and that there may be more to Rikki's story than she is willing to reveal.

Told episodically, When Cars Were Black, and Men Wore Hats is a neo-noir thriller that will keep the reader turning pages long after they should've turned out the lights.
