A Dance at the Slaughterhouse by Lawrence Block
A successful socialite's beautiful wife was raped and murdered in her own home -- and Matt Scudder believes the victim's grieving husband was responsible for the outrage. But to prove it, the haunted p.i. must descend into the depths of New York's sex-for-sale underworld, where young lives are commodities to be bought, perverted...and destroyed.
