Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension agent Don Trask is jerked from a blissful fall weekend with his girlfriend, Lieutenant Melanie Jenkins of the Stillwater Police, when Jenkins’s sister is brutally attacked. The attack is a warning to Trask to stay out of the business of a mysterious leader of a drug ring known only as ‘Diablo’ and it tears apart the relationship of Trask and Jenkins.
But Trask and Jenkins share the same bulldog mentality, and will not heed the warning until Diablo is brought to justice, each pursuing their own investigations. Diablo is not pleased when he discovers Trask has not stopped his pursuit and soon, the retaliations escalate, putting Trask, Jenkins, and those close to them in mortal danger.
The Trask Brothers are back in the latest installment of the highly rated murder mystery series.
