Sonya Lahiri is nothing like your average twenty-something year old. Most of her peers are staying out late with friends, while she's staying out late with drug-lords and thieves. Her peers are chasing romantic relationships and she's chasing murders. At times, she envies their simplistic life, but she knows she'd miss the thrill of solving a mystery and catching the bad guy.
A new case comes knocking on her door, with upper-class women being murdered. The case becomes personal when Sonya's estranged father is one of the suspects. With the help of a teenage pickpocket, trying to outsmart Seattle's finest, and infiltrating an exclusive socialite club, Sonya must clear her father's name.
With a slew of high-society women being murdered, a lead detective keeping close tabs, a charming new detective, mixed with an orphan who tags along for the ride, and unconventional parents who voice their opinions every chance they get, Sonya can't help but flirt with murder.
