Sabastian Habeck is a world-weary private investigator in Des Moines, Iowa. A smoker and drinker, he is decades behind the times. Three days into the new year, Habeck accepts a case from his former sister in-law to find her missing nineteen-year-old daughter Annabelle.
His investigation uncovers a mystery in the girl’s changing personality over the previous three months. Evidence also points to a connection to her father’s urban renewal project and exposes a web of shady connections that further entangle the case.
In the midst of the investigation, Habeck is asked by a local shop keeper to help her teenage nephew she suspects is using drugs.
Exhausted from his own end of year celebrations, Habeck struggles to handle two cases, both of which may land him more danger than expected.
