Private detectives Tanner and Thibodaux travel to Galveston to solve mystery behind the death of a wealthy businessman who was murdered early in the morning on Galveston's seawall. Hired by the cantankerous matriarch of a family whose history is entangled with the infamous 1950's era of whorehouses and gambling joints, the two detectives must navigate through her preconceived notions of guilt and innocence, as they search for her son's killer. Molly B, who, with her long-deceased husband, moved from the flesh and gambling business to build a respectable fortune on Galveston's industrial port, demands justice for her son's murderer. When the investigation is concluded, its results shake the very foundation of the family's heritage.
As they work with local police and meet with several potential suspects, Tanner and Thibodaux learn much about the Island's rich history. New dimensions of the two detective's lives are revealed as both long-time bachelors find love interests and learn that caring for others can make a private eye's work even more risky and demanding.
Like the two previous books in the Tanner & Thibodaux Series, Homicide in Black & White and Rich Man, Dead Man, Murder on the Seawall will capture the readers attention from the first page to the last.
