A friend's murder takes Cuddy back to the dark days of Vietnam.
As military policemen, John Francis Cuddy and Al Sachs bonded while patrolling the wild streets of American-occupied Saigon. Over a decade later, Cuddy is a private detective making a living in Boston's back alleys. Awoken by a ringing phone at seven a.m., Cuddy is shocked to hear Sachs asking to meet for a drink that night. His old friend's voice reminds him of the time a Cagney movie inspired Sachs to say that, if ever captured by enemy agents, he would break his pinkie finger to signal to Cuddy that his death was not an accident. Sachs never shows for the drink, and the next morning he is found naked in a park, his body mangled and his pinkie broken.
To avenge his friend, Cuddy confronts a dark military cover-up, and travels back to the war zone he thought he left behind years ago.
Moral, honest, and occasionally violent, Cuddy makes his living solving cases that have fallen through the cracks of the Boston police department. Although Healy published the final Cuddy novel, Spiral, in 1999, he has continued to follow the character in short stories. Upon concluding the Cuddy series, Healy drew on his legal experience to write thrillers under the pseudonym Terry Devane. Of Healy's eighteen novels, fifteen have won or been nominated for the Shamus Award. His most recent book is A Stain Upon the Robe (2003).
