“This important, nail-biting crime thriller about MS-13 sets the bar very high. One of the year’s best thrillers.” –Best Thrillers
The bodies of high school and middle school kids are found dead from an overdose of heroin and fentanyl. The drug trade along the I-94 and I-43 corridors and the Milwaukee Metro area is controlled by MS-13, a violent gang originating from El Salvador. Ricardo Fuentes is sent from Chicago to Waukesha to find out who is cutting in on their business, shut it down and teach them a lesson. But he has an ulterior motive: find and kill a fifteen-year-old boy, George Tokay, who had killed his cousin the previous summer.
Detectives Jamie Graff, Pat O’Connor and Paul Eiselmann race to find the source of the drugs, shut down the ring, and find Fuentes before he kills anyone else, especially George or members of his family. The three detectives discover the ring has its roots in a high school among the students and staff.
Targeted Age Group:: 12 through Adult
What Inspired You to Write Your Book?
This is drawn from the news and what is happening to adolescents currently. While this book is a stand-alone, it continues the story of the Evans family, and in particular, George, an adopted Navajo boy. I wanted a story that would showcase George and his abilities, which are many and unique to him.
How Did You Come up With Your Characters?
I wrote four previous books in a series (including a prequel) and introduced several of the characters that run through my books. My characters are growing, like any adolescent, and are discovering who they are in the world. This is a common theme in modern literature, but within the thriller-crime-mystery genre.
