Brockmannâ??s latest novel is no exception. Florida private investigator and ex-cop Ric Alvaradoâ??s life is spiraling out of control.

Thanks to quick thinking and even quicker reflexes, Ric comes to the rescue, only to learn heâ??s done a very good deed for some very bad people.

With Robin and Julesâ??s help, Ric and Annie are soon entrenched in Burnsâ??s organization, surrounded by killers who may already have executed an FBI infiltrator. Before long the couple realizes that many more lives besides their own will be at stake if they make a false move. As the heat between them reaches dangerous levels, so do the risks theyâ??re willing to takeâ??in the line of duty, for the sake of loyalty, and in the name of something that runs even deeper.Read More
