In Keith Donnellys third mystery featuring private investigator Donald Youngblood (after Three Deuces Down and Three Days Dead), all the usual players return, and this is Dons biggest case yet. His quiet home life has become a bit more complicated with live-in love Mary Sanders and quasi-daughter Lacy Malone ruling the roost. Then a fathers plea for justice for his dead daughter leads Don into a maze of murder as he tries to unravel the mystery of a strange tattoo that is part of a deadly game with rules so sinister only the devil himself would approve.
