WHEN YOU'RE IN THIS DEEP, THERE'S ONLY ONE THING TO DO... CASH OUT.
HERE'S THE STORY: San Francisco bookie Billy Rossi is more than $300,000 short. Some Chinatown thugs beat it out of him and his girlfriend, Sherri the showgirl. But who could he report it to? Insurance companies? Cops? No. That's why he calls down-and-out ex-cop John "Tomb" Tomei.
HERE'S THE DEAL: Tomb needs money. Billy needs help. All Tomb has to do is go after the thugs, find out why they're trying to push Billy into early retirement, and get the money back. Easy, right?
HERE'S THE PROBLEM: Sherri has disappeared. And the only person Tomb can count on is the retired king of the Chinatown beat, crazy Red Vanes. But Red has his own psychotic idea about settling the score—and Tomb has to move fast before the high-powered Chinese gangster who wants both Tomb and Red dead gets his wish...

Об авторе
Jerry Kennealy has worked as a police officer, as well as a licensed private investigator, adding great authenticity to his novels. Besides the Polo mysteries, two of which have been nominated for Shamus Awards, he's written several non-series thrillers lately. He's a member of the Mystery Writers of America and the Private Eye Writers of America. Praise for Jerry Kennealy "Kennealy infuses even high-stakes moments with a sense of light-hearted fun, and the plot is trickier to puzzle out than one might expect." —Publishers Weekly on Jigsaw "It's fun to see Carroll squeezed between two cops who like him for two different crimes, and there's lots of trivia for Hitchcock buffs." —Kirkus Reviews on Jigsaw "As always, Kennealy delivers hard-boiled excitement nicely dressed with humor and style." —Booklist on All That Glitters "Kennealy keeps a firm grip on his readers with a smart pace and a light, intelligent tone that's never cute. We're also treated to intriguing lore about investigating procedures in the electronic age, scenic and historic bits, and a lively background romance." —Publishers Weekly on Beggar's Choice "I can't wait 'til Kennealy's next novel hits the bookstores." —San Francisco Examiner "A winner full of gritty policework and international intrigue. Kennealy makes San Francisco one of his main characters. His other characters ring true partly because of the realistic dialogue." —San Francisco Examiner (The Conductor) "Enjoyable... action-filled." —Publishers Weekly (The Conductor) "Kennealy's characters, combined with his seasoned ability to weave several plot elements into a smooth whole... stand out in the thriller genre." —Publishers Weekly (The Suspect) "A crime thriller that has prize winner written all over it. Enthralling." —Harriet Klausner (The Suspect) “GRITTY.” —San Francisco Examiner (The Other Eye) “ACTION-FILLED.” —Publishers Weekly (The Other Eye)
