TJ Hawke is looking for answers . . . But someone has him in their sights.

For eight years, TJ Hawke has been searching for the person or persons who killed his partner, Police Officer Joe Lamb. But the trail is growing cold, and time is running out. Then, in the middle of an investigation of an unrelated case, Hawke comes across a clue. It’s not much, but it’s all he has.

As Hawke follows the clues, he finds himself in the middle of a complex conspiracy involving police officers, prosecutors, and maybe even the judge. Nothing makes sense until TJ stumbles across the final clue that reveals the killer to be the last person anyone would expect.

If you like crime mysteries with lots of twists and a kaleidoscope of clues, you’ll love the first book in Alan Woodruff’s new TJ Hawke series.
