The death of friends

As The Death of Friends begins, Rios is awakened one night by an earth tremor, but it is the emotional tremors that are about to shake his life. An old friend, Supreme Court judge Chris Chandler, is found dead in his chambers, but murder, not the quake, is the cause. The judge's young lover appeals to Rios to protect him from suspicion of guilt, but Henry must tread carefully.
Chandler's wife, also a friend, knows nothing of her husband's secret life; almost no one does - in fact, even Henry had never heard of this young man. What other secrets was Chandler hiding? As the investigation progresses, Henry begins to uncover the layers of a man far more complicated than he had ever realized - and to glimpse in them the dark mirror of his own soul.
