    About this audiobook

    An Indie Next Selection

    A young man is found murdered, his bones crushed nearly to dust before his body was dumped into New York's East River.

    In New York there are hundreds of murders a year, but this one is different. Somebody is sending a message. And shockingly, the victim has ties to a man very close to Henry Parker. And the murder ties into a case that has the city paralyzed with fear: a vicious drug kingpin is looking to take back the city. And this death is just the beginning.

    For years this kingpin has been shrouded in darkness. And to shine a light on this criminal, Henry must team up with his mentor, the legendary, troubled Jack O'Donnell. But the more they try to reveal behind this blood-soaked curtain, the more they begin to realize just how dark the Fury's plans are. And they haven't seen anything yet . . .

    • 3/5
      Jack O'Donnell, Parker's journalistic idol and mentor, suddenly returns to the newsroom, flush with newly acquired though hard-earned sobriety and a readiness to work. Parker has just the case to get O'Donnell's sea legs back underneath him. The two almost immediately find themselves on the scene of the aftermath of a murder, the victim of which had ties to Parker's late brother. Their investigation ultimately leads them back to the headquarters of 718 Enterprises, which has quietly and mysteriously pulled up stakes. They are undaunted, and indeed, the newly sober teacher still has a few things left to bequeath to the student with respect to the art of ferreting out information from unwilling sources. While O'Donnell's rough-edged, no-nonsense methods of tutelage are not quite what one might expect, they certainly are effective --- so much so, in fact, that they inadvertently put Parker on the scene of a story and make him a part of it. The ending is shocking. You will not be able to put this one down until the end.
