About SILENT REMAINS …

A nail-biting thriller with a Hitchcock-style MacGuffin.

When SFPD Homicide Inspector Nick Jarnac investigates the  murder of a 19-year-old girl, missing for forty years, her skeleton found in the mud of a construction site near the remains of two dozen Miwok Indians who have been in the ground for two centuries, he becomes involved in a bizarre, complex plot that involves a Macau-based Mafia chief, several crooked state and local politicians, a cross-dressing Mongolian hit man, a 77-year-old private eye and his burned out ex SFPD partner, who is hoping to make one last big haul before leaving the department.
