Dick Wolf Livres

Dick Wolf's second installment in his bestselling series starring NYPD Detective Jeremy Fisk pits him against a top assassin working for a nefarious cartel. A number of bodies are discovered on the United States' border with Mexico, each marked with a hummingbird symbol. Detective Cecilia Garza of the Mexican intelligence agency recognizes it as the calling card of a killer called Chuparosa. Garza has been pursuing this man for years, yet knows little about him, except that he's heading to New York City—along with the rest of the world. It's United Nations Week in Manhattan and Jeremy Fisk can't let a devastating loss keep him from safeguarding the city and the world's leaders. Complicating matters is the news of a mass murder in the city—and the arrival of a very determined Mexican detective. To stop Chuparosa, these uneasy allies must learn to work together—and Fisk will have to learn the hard way that justice is not always blind.

When a leaker named Verlyn Merritt releases sensitive documents from the NYPD Intelligence Division to WikiLeaks, some of the deadliest criminals have access to Detective Jeremy Fisk's unlisted home address. Within hours, three mysterious assailants arrive at his Sutton Place apartment. Who are they and why do they want Fisk dead? Authorities quickly identify and arrest Merritt. But the case takes a sinister twist when an anonymous third party makes threats if authorities don't release Merritt immediately. Forced from his home and his bank accounts drained, Fisk confronts Chay Maryland, a reporter who has been covering Merritt's case. Fisk wants the journalist's help to get close to the leaker - to find out what Merritt really wants and who else is involved. The investigation is nearly derailed when a serial sniper begins shooting people on the street who seem to have no connection to Merritt's case. The killer's aim is eerily accurate - and Fisk believes the shooter might be using a drone rigged with unusual sighting capabilities. Then the sniper contacts the New York Times and promises to kill one person every day, for the greater good of the citizens of America. With the clock ticking and millions of lives at stake, Fisk and Chay must find the mastermind before he can wreak havoc on a city paralyzed by fear
