While he recovers, his sister, Elena, stays with him at the hospital, and they begin to repair their strained relationship, finally airing their thoughts and regrets about their childhood in an abusive home.

The girl, Vicky, grew up in foster homes, but now seeks out Elena for help escaping an abusive husband.<BR><BR>Despite Elena and Rios&rsquo;s efforts, Vicky returns to her husband&mdash;but not long after, he&rsquo;s shot dead in a motel room and Vicky claims to have blown him away.

As he fights for a niece he never knew he had, he must also combat the ever-present shadow of his own mortality and the truth about his past. A possible judgeship and the beginning of a new love give him hope for the future in this stellar conclusion to the acclaimed Henry Rios series, about love, loss, and the enduring power of family.<BR><i><BR>Rag and Bone </i>is the seventh book in the Henry Rios mystery series, which begins with <i>The Little Death </i>and <i>Goldenboy</i>.</div></div></div>
