"Immensely entertaining... a helluva plot, and a wonderful twist."
--Benjamin Whitmer, author of Pike and Cry Father
Andy Saunders knows how to survive. He survived all alone in Los Angeles as a teenager, and he survived in foreign combat zones as a soldier. He survived homelessness on the streets of Phoenix, Arizona, an unforgiving desert metropolis ruled by thugs, assassins, crooked cops, money and hate.
He's had enough of surviving, and now enjoys life, living with his girlfriend, working as a handyman, teaching martial arts and playing in a punk rock band. But, when a friend falls victim to a hitman, and the police do nothing, Saunders decides to make some inquiries—then finds that he has passed the point of no return, and that the killer is now hunting him. He once again must fight for survival, and the fight will lead him to a truth more awful than anything he has ever known.
The wide open spaces of Arizona turn dark and claustrophobic in this violent, romantic and sexy neo-noir murder mystery of seething cruelty and rationalized evil.
