It puts his on-going detective character Jonathan Stride on the trail of a cunning and relentless killer.Elonda's seen most things working the streets. But it's a first when her client is shot dead in the act. Detective Jonathan Stride quickly establishes that the victim is M.J. Lane, son of a reclusive millionaire film producer. Another death is also troubling the Vegas force - that of a little boy, killed in a hit-and-run incident involving a stolen car. Then the body of a woman is found in a remote farmhouse. Could the murders be linked? It seems the killer wants to send a message about the brutal slaying decades earlier of a nightclub dancer. That case was wrapped up quickly. Perhaps too quickly? Someone certainly thinks so - and he's set on murderous revenge for the sins of the past. The unputdownable thriller from the author of Thief River Falls. Everyone keeps secrets in Vegas. Especially about murder. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
