In a remote mountaintop in Western New York, ex-PI Joe Kurtz faces a deadly secret that could claim his life in five days. After being ambushed, he finds himself nursing a severe concussion while grappling with the aftermath of an attack that leaves his female parole officer, Peg O'Toole, on life support. As he navigates through the haze of pain, Kurtz must confront Toma Gonzaga, a gay don with a blood debt, and Angelina Farino Ferrara, a female don intent on claiming either his body or his life. Meanwhile, a serial killer known as the Artful Dodger is on the loose, preying on heroin addicts in Buffalo. Kurtz's only ally is Rigby King, a police detective and his former teenage love from Father Baker's Orphanage, who has her own motives for wanting to be close to him. As the clock ticks down, Kurtz must decipher Rigby's intentions—whether she aims to save him or see him imprisoned. With its lightning-fast pace and relentless action, this installment raises the bar for crime fiction, immersing readers in the gritty reality of Buffalo's streets.
