“The man who has succeeded Elmore Leonard and George V. Higgins as the master of the underworld thriller.” ― Chicago Sun-Times Some crimes cry for vengeance, like the one that washes Rachel Wilson up on a beach, her head bald, her body mutilated. It’s a cry that Agnes Lynn, a hooker gone straight and Rachel’s long- time friend, can’t ignore. Steely and resourceful, with a determination impervious to fear, Agnes aims to settle scores with pimps and porn kings―and unwittingly, blindly, sets herself in the path of the formidable mob boss Viktor Timkin. What she doesn’t plan on, though, are crooked cops, a Saudi weapons dealer, gangland assassins, a turf war, and redfella deviants. What she doesn’t plan on could get her killed.
