Lie Down with Silk and Daggers

You get a case and then things start going bad. Thing is, your client and her ancient Mayan dagger has gone missing. You do your best to track her down, and you discover a shady businessman is importing stolen artifacts. He's angry about you messing in his affairs, and sends goons to bend your head.
Then, you get charged with murder and go to prison. And meet a really smart smuggler guy. While inside, the love of your life goes into hiding. But, lucky for you, for some strange reason, your sentence gets commuted and you get back to investigating your case.
After months of piling up disjointed details during your search, running all over creation, you finally tie a few things together. Names and places appear out of the fog.
 Justice is hard to come by, but you get it...finally.
