Para Louis, ir al trullo con una condena por maricón era prácticamente una garantía de dolor y sufrimiento. Era mejor entrar con la fama de haberle quitado la vida a otro hombre. Al menos, eso aseguraba cierto respeto. A Wooster ni siquiera le interesaba ver al chico en la silla eléctrica. Para él, bastaba con demostrar a los otros su error: la policía del estado, su propia gente, que se había reído a sus espaldas por creer que un chico negro era capaz de un crimen tan sofisticado.En esta séptima entrega de la serie policiaca protagonizada por Charlie Parker, el ex policía –que vive atormentado desde el asesinato de su primera mujer y su hija– ha perdido su licencia de investigador privado y el permiso de armas, y se gana la vida trabajando de camarero en un bar.
