Synopsis:

Sara is a poet and part-time librarian whose new lover, David, is found dead one hot August morning in the city of Chicago. It seems that this restaurant owner may have been more than he appeared to be; authorities suspect his involvement in a kidnapping, rape and murder. But Sara can’t bring herself to believe that the man she gave her heart to was a killer, and is outraged that the police seem to have closed the book on the case. So she begins her own investigation and is led deeper and deeper through an urban labyrinth, into the contemporary underworld.
 
As the detective story moves forward in time, scenes from the love affair take us back to the moment when Sara and David first met. Finally the plots converge, and Sara finds herself face to face with the person who murdered her beloved. Winner of the L. Arnold Weissberger Playwriting Competition sponsored by New Dramatists, this thriller brings out the poetry that is only implicit in most of the noir genre.
