by Allan Evans
Not all assassins are elite. This one's a wildcard.
Frank Perlmutter is the assassin you call when there are no good options left. After he goes rogue at an international conference, Detective Cade Dawkins closes in—only to face a new nightmare when a stalker kidnaps Cade’s partner and livestreams her captivity. Cade and his Five Below Major Crimes Task Force race to save Grace and stop Frank before the body count rises faster than the Mississippi during spring thaw.
Allan Evans writes the twisty thrillers your friends warn you not to start before bed. He’s the author of two other Cade Dawkins thrillers, Killer Blonde and Killer Smile, along with several young adult novels, including Abnormally Abbey, Class Clown, and Spook Squad.
“A rollercoaster ride of a story. ”
