Claire Dewitt and the Bohemian Highway

Paul Casablancas, a musician and Claire DeWitt’s ex-boyfriend, was talented and popular in the San Francisco scene he shared with Claire. When he’s found dead in his apartment, his cherished guitars missing, Claire follows clues through Chinatown, Marin, and Santa Cruz, alongside her new assistant, Claude. Her other cases offer hints to Paul’s fate—including the case of a long-ago missing girl whom a teenage Claire found in the midst of the gritty, grim East Village of the 1980s. As visions of the past reveal the secrets of the present, Claire begins to understand the words of the enigmatic French detective Jacques Silette: “The detective won’t know what he is capable of until he encounters a mystery that pierces his own heart.” Could love be the undoing of the world’s greatest P.I.?
