When his golden retriever Rochester discovers a body behind the bounce house at Stewart's Crossing's first Purim carnival, Steve Levitan finds himself juggling two dangerous investigations that will test both his computer skills and his courage.
Eastern College President Babson asks Steve to use his hacking expertise to investigate Austin Graynor, a star academic whose impressive credentials might be hiding a darker past. What Steve discovers about the professor's history with female colleagues creates an urgent dilemma about academic power and deadly consequences.
He's distracted, though, by the murder of Yakov Shmerler, a diamond dealer who was supposed to marry eighteen-year-old Hadassah Schildkraut. Hadassah fled her restrictive Orthodox community to stay with friends of Steve's. As he helps his detective friend Rick Stemper investigate Yakov's murder, they uncover secrets that reach from Pennsylvania to the isolated community of Kiryas Lev in New York's Catskill Mountains.
Hadassah's escape has made her a target. Her blog exposing corruption in her hometown threatens powerful men who've built their authority on others' silence. As both investigations converge on themes of hidden identities and the courage to challenge corrupt authority-echoing Purim's ancient story of Queen Esther-Steve must protect those speaking truth to power while helping bring dangerous men to justice.
