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 there''s one kind of person Tank Rizzo hates most in this world, it''s 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. He''s got the highest signed confession rate in the NYPD and a distinguished career built on putting men behind bars--whether they''re guilty or not doesn''t matter much to him. When Tank''s partner, Pearl, tells him about an old family friend Kenwood put in jail for a murder he didn''t commit, Tank and Pearl vow to take Kenwood down.
Also in need of a takedown: the money-laundering accounting firm where Tank''s brother used to work--before he mysteriously died, leaving Tank the sole guardian of his nephew, Chris. Chris smells a rat, and enlists Tank''s 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, and the U.S. Attorney--not to mention his and Pearl''s own quick wits and Chris''s burgeoning skills as a computer whiz--Tank gears up to take on his most dangerous and personal cases to date.
