Sinopsis

A gritty, whip-smart thriller from acclaimed author Harry Hunsicker.

For once, things are going well for former DEA contractor Jon Cantrell. Hes got a real job as a fix-it man for a law firm that specializes in handling government contracts. But when his ex-girlfriend Piper asks him to meet with a high-ranking police official and Cantrell is forced to take an off-the-books assignment to find a missing boy, everything starts to unravel.

Not helping the situation is his client, Deputy Chief Raul Delgado, an up-and-coming politico carrying his own tragic burdens he doesnt like to dwell on. Forty years earlier, a racist cop brutally killed Delgados brother. Now, in a weird twist of fate, Delgado works for the very department that altered his life.

As Cantrell proceeds, he uncovers a puzzling link between Delgado, the missing boy, and a series of vigilante murders. As the link becomes clearer, Cantrell struggles to stay alive and find the missing child.
