"[A] fast-paced mystery... Fans of the prolific Stuart Woods and Randy Wayne White will hope that Birtcher's engaging series has an equally long life." - Booklist A Nero Award Finalist After twenty years in the LAPD, Mike Travis should be enjoying his retirement in Hawaii. Instead, he's become a reluctant PI who can't manage to stay out of trouble-much to the chagrin of his long-suffering girlfriend. This time, the problem is his brother, Valden, head of the family company of Van de Groot Capital. A mover and shaker, he's in Los Angeles for a political fundraiser at the home of a powerful pharmaceutical titan. But first, he's being blackmailed. Someone has a compromising video of him and a young woman who is definitely not his wife-and they want three million dollars for it. That's when he calls Travis. With his longtime connections in Los Angeles-including his former partner on the force-Travis has everything under control, until he doesn't. Now entangled in a web of murder, finance, and politics, only Travis can unravel a conspiracy international in scope-and unparalleled in evil... "Birtcher is a solid, fluent writer; the story unfolds with good-humored ease, and Travis is a personable narrator... All of the elements are in place for a tense thriller." - Kirkus Reviews "Well-executed... Readers will hope they don't have to wait another seven years for the world-weary Travis's next adventure." - Publishers Weekly "A thrilling page turner with a very complicated plot that all comes together in the end... Highly recommended." - Detective Mystery Stories
