Sinker

Former Las Vegas Homicide Detective Jim Snow has found himself in a tenuous position with his partner Alice James. She's the other half of their Private Eye firm James & James and she's back in her hometown tending to her sick mother and contemplating a career change. This leaves Snow alone in Las Vegas to work his newest case involving the drowning of a former Deputy District Attorney on Lake Mead. But that's only half the job. He'll also have to find the victim's monkey that was with her in her boat that night - and babysit until he can find a primate shelter with a vacancy. Snow struggles to uncover the events leading up to the drowning, dealing with a diverse assortment of suspects including the victim's twin sister, an ambulance-chasing estranged husband, an unscrupulous loan shark, and an ex-convict with a bad attitude. Adding to Snow's frustration sifting through the clues, he'll have to work this case on his own - with a monkey riding shotgun instead of the brilliant Alice James.
