He's trying to put his life back together, but something always gets in the way. In this brand new adventure, the fifth book in the popular series, Callahan suffers a devastating loss that forces him to hunt down a ruthless professional killer.
"Mick Callahan is a man with a past, a mean right hook, and a talk show. He's pretty good at giving people advice - just not necessarily good at taking it. The strength of this series is in its central characters, flawed, human, often funny, sometimes tragic, and the relationships among them."
-"Mystery Scene"
"A flawed and edgy hero. Dark wit, excellent writing and action-packed pace."
-The Rap Sheet, "January Magazine"
"Mick Callahan is not only likeable (as deemed by Library Journal) but he manages to endear himself as a very realistic hero, with a strong sense of purpose and an equal dash of vulnerability."
-"Cemetery Dance"
"Mick's long road to redemption is wry, bittersweet and altogether touching."
