Leonard P Valentine is no ordinary short-order cook… Leonard P Valentine is a street savvy, short-order cook at a New York City diner, known by its regulars as “Greely’s Slop Shop.” An orphan, never knowing his father and a mother he can’t remember, Leonard bounced around a string of money hungry foster homes before finally escaping to the streets on his 18th birthday. An introvert by nature and fluent in sarcasm, Leonard enjoys being a fly on the wall in a crowded room. Invisibility and a quirky sense of humor are his defenses. After witnessing a mob assassination of the powerful County Commissioner, William Wood, Leonard finds himself at the center of the investigation as the police's sole witness, a place uncomfortable and unwelcome. When the young and sexy investigative reporter, Lexi Osborne steps onto the scene, Leonard is drawn into a secret world of blood money, corruption, power, and influence as the pair work together in an attempt to bring the vicious murderer to justice. Leonard soon finds himself falling for the quick-witted and feisty reporter. But what could Lexi ever see in him? After all, he’s just an invisible short-order cook at a greasy spoon diner. Danger and intrigue follow Leonard around every corner keeping him looking over his shoulder not knowing who to trust or who to count on. Then he meets Detective Frank O’Conner, a hard-nosed cop with a healthy respect for the law. Leonard must decide if the detective is an ally or just another cop on the mob’s payroll.
