Eddie Sabella is the city columnist at a New York tabloid, a 37-year-old hot shot who is a ferocious reporter and competitor, and hard to beat on a story. And in “Where Have You Gone Without Me,” he stumbles upon the biggest story of his career when a statue is stolen from a church.

Not just any statue, but one that had seemed to weep real tears only the day before, an event that made headlines. Eddie’s pursuit of the story behind the theft brings him in contact with a colorful cast of characters, including a respected restaurateur with a secret past who had donated the statue to the church, a cantankerous old priest with a taste for fine wine and expensive cigars, a stylishly dressed bookie who has the best table in the best restaurants in town, a legendary hit man who uses countless different methods to kill his prey, and an aging, still-volatile Mafia soldier who operates a funeral home but dreams of owning a tiki bar.

And then there is Phyllis, a raven-haired beauty who was Eddie first love and had disappeared without a trace 15 years before. Phyllis makes a startling appearance as Eddie is dining at a popular restaurant, nailing him to his seat and disrupting his personal life while he hustles to solve the mystery of the stolen statue, a mystery with more twists and turns than he ever have imagined.
