Discovering the body of a brutally murdered boy in a rainy dog park is the worst possible way for private detective Jane Ronson to start her day. She doesn't like people—dead or alive. Her one true friend is her doggie doppelganger Archie, a Bull Terrier with a misshapen head and a bad attitude. Jane hates being responsible for anyone's problems, and death causes big problems, especially when Jane is dragged into the center of murder investigation that threatens her life.

To solve the crime, Jane enlists the help of a sexy Baltimore cop and an eccentric bail bondsman straight out of John Waters movie. Jane must also also use her Girl With the Dragon Tattoo-inspired computer hacking and street fighting skills to find and punish the killer and his family.
