[Fina Fitzgibbons 04] • The Brooklyn Drop

In the middle of a wintry night, private investigator Fina Fitzgibbons finds Phyllida Oxley slumped over her dining room table, the victim of memory-impairing date rape drugs. When her condition goes from poor to comatose, her distraught fifteen-year-old granddaughter, Kat Oxley disappears. Meanwhile, Fina's agency is busy surveilling a massage parlor in Bensonhurst suspected of human trafficking, and Fina's father reappears to throw a wrench into her relationship with NYPD Patrol Officer Denny McDuffy. As Fina frantically searches for the missing teen, she uncovers the truth behind the traffickers, but they have a surprise waiting for her in the not-so-friendly skies.
