returns to the subject of his very first mysteryrunning.
Through a particularly ill-fated series of events, couch potato Maeve Kelly, an

mother, who insists that exercise is a waste of her time, and collect pledges for her
aunts beloved charity. What she doesnt know is just how vicious some of the other
runners are.
Meanwhile, Detective Peter Diamond is tasked with crowd control on the raucous
day of the raceand catches sight of a violent criminal he put away a decade ago, who
very much seems to be back to his old ways now that he is paroled. Diamonds hackles
are already up when he learns that one of the runners never crossed the finish line and
disappeared without a trace. Was Diamond a spectator to murder?
