A custody case. A compromised court. A witness who knows everything and has every reason to say nothing.
When Dominique Loya agrees to represent her childhood friend in a Pittsburgh custody dispute, she expects a hard fight. What she doesn't expect is a religious organization with deep pockets and a long reach, one that takes children from their parents at twelve and calls it faith. A woman approaches her friend in a grocery store and says her name. Not as a greeting. As a warning. What follows pulls Dominique from the courtroom into the architecture of a system that has been quietly failing the right people for years, while her mentor Ro Rabinowitz works the angles she can't work openly. Dominique has less than two years before 'Culture of Love' claims a ten-year-old girl as its own. She has less time than that to figure out why the court keeps getting in her way.
Steel City Blues: A Culture of Love is the second book in the Steel City series.
