"You should leave before you get yourself in trouble"
"I'm leaving when the job's done, George"
Some people would call Julia Pyne a private detective. Others would just call her out of her depth.
Or a hard-ass. It depends who you ask.
When the conclusive solution to a young man's murder relies on something as small as a missing fragment of a shattered mirror, it's already a job for the professionals. When it is lost within the bustling metropolis of New York, it would take experience and a miracle.
Julia is merely an amateur.
And she has never believed in miracles.
