A young man is found dead of a heroin overdose on a Hudson River pier – while his wealthy father is stumping for political office. But the boy's sister swears he had never used drugs. An investigation to prove Peter Long's death was not a suicide, however, could prove to be a fatal mistake. PI Sydney Sloane delves deeper into a perfect family's darkest secrets.
