Bone factory
"The aging riverboat casinos and decrepit cut-rate hotels that line the dark waters running through downtown Booth City reveal the seething underbelly of a Midwestern city down on its luck. Booth City is filled with a collection of lonely souls looking for one last shot at happiness in what seems the most unlikely place on earth. Instead, they're trapped in a never-ending cycle of false hope and true despair, temporary sobriety and permanent desolation." "Two of these souls, homicide cops Ike Horner and Eliza Ochoa, are on the scene of a body dump in a downtown park, crouching over the freezing corpse of another dead working girl. She's been cut up in all the most delicate places, and so it's perhaps understandable that Ike and Eliza at first miss the most telling part of this routine Booth City morning: she isn't actually female."
