Complicating Moe's life is his daughter's wedding a few weeks away, a girlfriend a state or two away, and the lies he has to tell all the time to everyone. Moe is a man with a conscience strong enough to bother him, but not strong enough to prevent some of the sins he commits. Haunted by the memory of cops he once worked with and an ex-wife who was murdered, Moe plods through his investigation each day suffering new indignities from the cancer eating away his stomach.
In addition to reminding displaced New Yorkers of the ecstasy of Nathan's fries, author Reed Farrel Coleman infuses his story with enough suspects and motives to keep the reader guessing as Moe discovers more and more seediness in his ironic quest for the truth about both Alta's murder and the reason the two EMT's refused to help the dying man. Neither he nor the reader is prepared for how the two events are related, who was involved, how little we know about those closest to us. Hurt Machine is a satisfying, gritty mystery that keeps the reader inventing new theories.
