An excellent little neo-noir about a political fixer looking into the murder of his sister. It starts out slow, but Thomas knows how to inject a lot of color into his storytelling that makes the set-building blow by. The climax is satisfying in the pieces-falling-into-place way of a good mystery, though it did feel a bit rushed.
