Summary

In Jimmy McSwain's world, death is ever-present, a concept that both taunts and defines him. Now it's about to consume him. A new client has come to Finley Investigations with a strange request: stop her husband from killing himself.
But it isn't so simple a request. Nick Juneau is ill and doesn't want those around him to watch him suffer. What can a seasoned private eye like Finn Sullivan and his apprentice do for this family? Before they can confront him, Jimmy is tasked with trailing Nick, who disappears for hours at a time without explanation.
Jimmy has lots to learn about being a private investigator. The art of surveillance, finding one clue and understanding how it unlocks more pieces of an unsolvable puzzle, keeping to the job at hand. Stopping one man from doing something regretful doesn't mean he has to save the world.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. 
    I had not broken in. I had been let in. 
     
    June Calloway is a burglar - a safe that matters has an audience, and this audience had already started clapping. The job said bearer bonds. The vault held something else: the Crown's ghosts, catalogued like currency - retired witnesses, alive, contract current - and a voice through the ceiling speaker, calm as money counting itself, offering her a partnership she never asked for. 
     
    A burning annex. An iron ladder and a borrowed authority. A yacht-club room of four chairs where the city's honest people price a thief like an asset - and, on the fifth Friday, an envelope with no stamp, a green matchbook, and a phone number penciled under four words: *the harbor doesn't sleep.* 
     
    A heist thriller about a woman who counts in the dark, the crew she never chose, and the season that starts Monday. The Blackharbor series' four leading women cross paths at last - and the Ferryman answers.
