Readers who devoured Brandt Dodson’s four Colton Parker Mysteries will eagerly welcome this new novel from the suspense writer fans are comparing to Robert Parker, author of the megaselling Spenser series.

This provocative novel centers on police officer Ron Ortega, a cop caught in the middle:
His wife and new baby want him home. His superiors—and his own naked ambition—want him in Miami.

But when he infiltrates one of the city’s most vicious gangs, someone—or someones want him dead. And they’ll stop at nothing to achieve their goal. In a test of his faith, he must decide if he will succumb to the challenges and the temptations that surround him or live the life he’s always proclaimed.

Or for that matter, whether he’ll live at all.

“Brandt Dodson’s writing combines two of the best traditions of the private eye novel: a clean, laconic style and plotting based on believable human emotions and reactions.”
—Terence Faherty, author of Kill Me Again
