Duncan's whole world is the orphanage where he lives. Aged ten, he is sure that his mother is dead until the day she turns up to claim him. Maggie Bright, a soprano who was once the talent of her generation, now sings in a run-down bar through a haze of whisky and regret. She often finishes up in the arms of Joshua McGreevey, a Vietnam vet who earns his living as part of a tunneling crew seventy feet beneath the Bay. Thrown into this adult world of mysterious suffering, Duncan finds comfort in an ancient radio - from which tumble the voices of Apollo mission astronauts who never came home - and dreams of one day finding his father.

Post-war Boston is down on its luck and looking for change. In the grip of the worst winter in recent memory, no one is very interested in a string of murdered women. But the latest victim was loved. For old friends Cal O'Brien and Dante Cooper, hunting the killer of Dante's sister-in-law gives them both new purpose and some powerful enemies. But they believe in justice and second chances, and they'll see this thing through - whatever the cost.
Tension is rising in 1950s Boston... gangs and terrorists compete for the city in this compelling historical noir.
