Ties That Bind

Morality Officer Mary Shaw recruits Frankie and Trudy to investigate the disappearance of an English teacher in Chinatown, but Frankie suspects Mary isn’t telling them the whole truth. They soon learn that Mary has a personal connection to the missing woman, who was involved in pursuits much more wide-reaching and much less virtuous than teaching.
