Fans of James Patterson and Michael Connelly will love C. M. Sutter! John Vance is a hardened criminal of the worst variety. He runs a drug cartel and orders hits from behind prison walls as part of his daily routine. Narcotics Detective Jesse McCord had looked for Vance for years, and Jesse finally landed the break he needed to apprehend him and all the big players, but in the takedown, Vance's brother Jake was killed. Another year passed before Jesse was finally able to put cuffs around the wrists of the head honcho himself-John Vance. And Vance hasn't forgotten what Jesse did to him and his family. Now, John has pulled off a daring escape and is at large, and what Jesse believes is an unrelated murder leads him closer to the man he is hunting. Jesse vows to put John Vance back behind bars, but John has a plan of his own. Now the question is, who's hunting whom?
