About this book

Stolen cash is keeping a moving Los Angeles bungalow upright, leaving a homicide detective to expose murder and corruption before the structure gives way.

In early-1990s Los Angeles, a murder victim is discovered beneath a bungalow stranded mid-move on a dark boulevard. A homicide detective and the lead house rigger trace the crime through the building itself, where heist money concealed in sealed walls has altered its perilous balance. Before a corrupt utility chief drives the entire scene towards destruction, the investigators must untangle the killing and keep the house standing.
