Book Nine of the True Blue Detective Series
Is trust possible in a world where betrayal is widespread, and death is the ultimate outcome
.
After years of chasing Otto Ricci, Detectives Mario DeLuca and Howard Blitz finally caught their target. They watched with satisfaction when Ricci was finally arrested.
Mario feels victorious as the defendant slowly crumbles in court. Summoned as a witness, he is more than eager to testify against the man responsible for so much crime on the streets of New Orleans.
But then, the unexpected happens. As the case begins, the judge announces his decision to recuse himself from the proceedings. It is no secret that money can sway even the most respectable lawyers and judges in a corrupt legal system. Now, notorious criminal Otto Ricci could walk free.
Howard is now the one who must intervene and piece together the complex puzzle of a kidnapping, a contract to kill, and a skilled sniper ready to take down his target.
"Shadows of Death" is packed with action, with ups and downs throughout this thrilling journey. Surprisingly, there is also a hint of romance brewing between two very unlikely individuals. Despite all the chaos, you'll still find the detectives enjoying their morning coffee at Café Beignet as they work together to solve crimes.
