Bolero

Description:

Despite his bronze star, Nick Sayler was once a thief, junkie, and prime suspect in a murder case. Now he's a private investigator with a long list of rich clients and a good life ... but there's not enough whiskey in the world to wash away acid-etched memories of Julia Carteret, the beautiful woman who took a bullet meant for him. When a dancer with no money, no memory, and nothing in her pocket except Sayler's card-- and the number 44 carved across her back-- shows up in the ER, Sayler thinks keeping her safe could put him back on the road to redemption.
