They say that nice guys finish last. Not this time. Jan 'Jesse'
Schild is the quintessential nice guy who lost his wife and
daughter when their California home exploded in a chain reaction
caused by a drug lab explosion. The lab, operated by the infamous
Nikitin drug cartel was being raided by the DEA at the time of the
explosion. To ease his pain and begin the process of rebuilding his
life, Jesse moved halfway across the country at the behest of his
best friend, Piet Raat, M.D. In a most unconventional manner, he
met a homeless Marjorie 'Maggie' Collins. Maggie was in the wrong
place at the wrong time because she was sleeping in a warehouse and
became a witness to some of Nikitin's activities. As a result, she
was pursued by Nikitin's thugs because she knew too much. Jesse,
with a soft spot for a damsel in distress, took Maggie 'under his
wing' as it were because he swore to himself that Nikitin would
never take another innocent life. Frank Price is the team leader
for the Metro Police drug task force. As a twist of fate, Frank was
part of the very raid on that California drug lab where he first
met Jesse. Frank also vowed not to retire until Nikitin was either
behind bars or occupied a slab at the county morgue. Frank is
always looking for that one break; that one tidbit of information
that could eventually bring the cartel down, but Nikitin is so
careful with his operation that it seems to be ever elusive. With
twists and turns, cops 'on the take', bad guys turned informant, an
attorney with questionable ethics topped off with some unexpected
romance and good-natured humor, this is the novel that you won't
want to put down.
