About This Book
The clock is ticking... Night club owner Rick Cowan approaches criminal defense attorney Tex Hunter, and presents an offer that Hunter can't refuse. But Rick Cowan isn't a regular client. He isn't faultless, he isn't friendly, and he isn't clean-his past is littered with violence, agony, and decades of fraudulent behavior. Cowan claims he's innocent of the felony drug charges, claims he's been set-up from the inside, but the evidence against him continues to mount. Determined to smash a corruption racket involving convicted felons, business owners, and the Chicago Police Department, Hunter works the case, treading closer to the threats with each step, closer to danger with each day. The corruption racket was built on violence and deception, bribery and exploitation, and the members would continue to protect their reputations, even if it cost a defense lawyer his life. Digging through years of testimonies and decades of criminal activity, the evidence twists into Hunter's own past, uncovering information about his family that he never knew. But to uncover the evidence, to reveal the truth about his family's past, Tex Hunter must face his own demons, and risk his own life to expose it all...
