Description
When lost rich kid Morton Limbach II is found dead of autoerotic asphyxia, the police call it accidental death due to weird sex. His insurance company won't pay off on what they claim is a suicide. And the ACLU, Morty's beneficiary, may lose out on a quarter of a million dollars.
Tom Bethany, whose lover, Hope Edwards, runs the ACLU's Washington office, takes the case for a one-dollar fee and begins nosing around the improvisational theater group in Cambridge that Morty supported and called home. Actors of all persuasions, a resident shrink, a far-right zealot CEO, and a TV sitcom star help Bethany play out the scenario-some willingly, others out of deference to his wrestling skills. Armed with an ingenious improvisation to trap a killer, Bethany's ready for a grudge match late at night in Boston's Public Gardens. What he doesn't know is how fast-and how smart-the killer will move....
