Lying facedown on the floor with a gun to the back of his
head is where Alex McKnight finds himself after a game of
cards turns into a professional heist at the home of local
developer Win Vargas. When the dust settles, McKnight is
one of police chief Roy Maven's lead suspects. Worse,
Vargas' own sense of vigilante justice has targeted the
former private eye as well, and the brash millionaire may
be responsible for the sudden disappearance of Alex's best
friend, Jackie. Now, with officials pointed in the wrong
direction and his closest allies either missing or in
jail, Alex knows he is the only one who can uncover the
truth. But McKnight can't possibly know how dark this
conspiracy truly is-or how close to guilt he actually
stands...
