"With the horrible remnants of a childhood tragedy forever
visible across his otherwise handsome face, Joe Trona is
scarred in more ways than one. Rescued from an orphanage
by Will Trona, a charismatic Orange County politican who
sensed his dark potential, Joe is swept into the maelstrom
of power and intimidation that surrounds his adoptive
father's illustrious career. Serving as Will's right-hand
man, Joe is trained to protect and defend his father's
territory - but can't save the powerful man from his
enemies. Will Trona is murdered, and Joe will stop at
nothing to find out who did it." "Looking for clues as he
sifts through the remains of his father's life - his
girlfriends, acquaintances, deals, and enemies - Joe comes
to realize how many secrets Will Trona possessed, and how
many people he had the power to harm. But two leads keep
rising to the surface: a little girl who was kidnapped by
her mentally disturbed brother, and two rival gangs who
seem to have joined forces. As Joe deepens his
investigation - and is forced to confront the painful
events of his troubled childhood - these two seemingly
disconnected threads will intersect."--
