The mystery in Central and Van Buren has been solved and the worlds of Will Scott and his son Josh are returning back to normal a year later. Their house mother, Maria Garcia, has watched as the deck re-shuffles in their lives; her daughter and Will's part-time girlfriend, Teresa Garcia, has left for Washington, DC to get away from her past. There she meets and falls in love with a wealthy British diplomat from an old European family. She decides to come home on assignment one last time, and that's when her story and her background begin to unravel.
At the same time, Carol Simmons, Will's experiment in unrequited love, also returns to Phoenix at the same time. Will thinks she's finally come home and, more importantly, come home to him. However, she also returns home to Phoenix with a new friend, the beautiful and exotic Erica Xue. Have wires been crossed, signals mixed and wrong messages sent? What should have been a homecoming to remember soon turns sour.
As the players begin their courtship anew, new players enter as old players exit. Why did the women show up when they did? Is there a connection between Carol and her friend and an FBI investigation headed up by Teresa Garcia?
Mystery and intrigue build as new revelations come to light. Angela di Benedetto has also reappeared and, with the approval of her grandfather, Frank Scarlatti, has taken up with Will. The aging mobster has gone straight and has become great friends and a client of Will Scott.
Will also became an instant billionaire when both his friend Jack Peterson, and his wife, Marla, died and left everything to him. As more and more characters get involved in the intrigue, the CIA suddenly makes an appearance and Will becomes a target of international intrigue.
Always wanting to protect the family he loves, Will gets involved with the FBI, the CIA, the mob and … Russians.
The novel is beautifully set in Phoenix, Arizona in the mid-nineties at the end of the Cold War.
Teresa Garcia is a thriller of epic proportions.
