Description
A Miami bookmaker caught between the mob and the law becomes the target of a deadly scheme, sending him into a desperate flight while a determined U.S. marshal closes in. As criminal loyalties shift and old grudges resurface, the story moves through the shadowy worlds of organized crime, money, deception, and pursuit. With razor-sharp dialogue, offbeat humor, and richly drawn characters, the novel places its emphasis not only on the unfolding crime but on the private histories and unpredictable motives of those caught inside it. The result is a stylish, fast-moving crime story marked by cool tension and vivid psychological detail.
