Happy holidays indeed. Homicide Captain Hocks’s retirement fund evaporates under suspicious circumstances. Tommy’s cousin, whom Joe absolutely adores, is gang-raped. Computer guru Henrietta is sweating bullets over the upcoming disaster of Y2K that will send the computer system back to the Dark Ages. The kids’ sitter, Tía Edna, turns deathly ill, and Fel gets T-boned by a kid going 55 in a hospital zone. And that’s not taking into account a hideous murder investigation that has Gretchen pulling her hair out. Ho ho ho.
