About this ebook
Enter Clifford Hickey, scheduled to perform a guitar gig before trucking off to law school. Within moments of his arrival at his brother Alvaro’s peaceful woodland campsite, six armed men with badges crash the camp, and Alvaro runs. Clifford, surprised, is arrested and so brutally cuffed he fears for his hands. He then learns that one of the sheriff’s nephews has just been murdered, and Alvaro is the posse’s quarry.
Clifford, on the brink of adult life, is pitched into a murder investigation that develops into a duel between the Hickeys—for his father and mother soon drive up—and the law, the locals, and everyone’s past.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The Tom Hickey baton is handed off to son, Clifford. As a purely personal note, I enjoyed Tom and the SoCal/Tijuana storyline more.. maybe a generational thing! But still great storytelling.
