He was killed.In the dead of a Detroit winter, a widow must prove the impossible to a detective who believes only what he can touch-and discover, fragment by fragment, that the dead she mourns had been hiding the most terrible truth of all.How far would you go to know? And what would you do with the ten minutes you have left?
