Payback is personal for a former NYPD detective taking on a corrupt cop and a dirty accounting firm in this adrenaline-laced thriller from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Sleepers and Tin Badges. If theres one kind of person Tank Rizzo hates most in this world, its a dirty cop. Criminals are at least honest about being dishonest; dirty cops are a disgrace to the badge they carry. Detective Eddie Kenwood is one such disgrace. Hes got the highest signed-confession rate in the NYPD and a distinguished career built on putting men behind bars--whether theyre guilty or not doesnt matter much to him. When Tanks partner, Pearl, tells him about an old family friend Kenwood put in jail for a murder he didnt commit, Tank and Pearl vow to take Kenwood down. Also in need of a takedown: the money-laundering accounting firm where Tanks brother used to work--before he mysteriously died, leaving Tank the sole guardian of his nephew, Chris. Chris smells a rat, and enlists Tanks help to bring the men who had his father killed to justice. Working two big cases means getting out the big guns, and Tank assembles his A-team. With help from a retired mobster, a professional boxer, a Chelsea psychic, a dog named Gus, and the U.S. Attorney--not to mention his and Pearls own quick wits and Chriss burgeoning skills as a computer whiz--Tank gears up to take on his most dangerous and personal cases to date.About the AuthorLorenzo Carcaterra is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Safe Place, Sleepers, Apaches, Gangster, Street Boys, Paradise City, Chasers, Midnight Angels, The Wolf, and Tin Badges.
