“True friendship between man and man is infinite and immortal.” — Plato
Long ago, private investigator Duncan Scott learned that caring was a weapon people would use against him, and that those on whom he relied for protection were the ones most likely to hurt him. Now no one gets past his emotional barriers—until he solves the murder of a Chicago college student, and everything changes. When he realizes that the girl’s killer is a cop, someone she trusted to protect her, the ordinary case turns personal. Duncan never had the power to get justice for himself, but he has the power to get it for the girl now. His mission takes him from Chicago to Miami, where he meets the one man whose integrity can reach him behind his self-imposed walls.
Nothing Else Matters is the story of Duncan’s fight to get justice for a murder victim, to protect the only man in the world whom he admires, and to take the most terrifying step of his life: leaving his fortress of isolation to offer that man his friendship.
