About this series
A young man is found murdered, his bones crushed nearly to dust before his body was dumped into New York's East River.
In New York there are hundreds of murders a year, but this one is different. Somebody is sending a message. And shockingly, the victim has ties to a man very close to Henry Parker. And the murder ties into a case that has the city paralyzed with fear: a vicious drug kingpin is looking to take back the city. And this death is just the beginning.
For years this kingpin has been shrouded in darkness. And to shine a light on this criminal, Henry must team up with his mentor, the legendary, troubled Jack O'Donnell. But the more they try to reveal behind this blood-soaked curtain, the more they begin to realize just how dark the Fury's plans are. And they haven't seen anything yet . . .

Named one of the Best Books of the Year by the Strand An Indie Next Selection Henry Parker left his old life behind years ago-a broken home and shattered lives are little more than a bad memory. Since then he has forged a great career, saved lives, revealed monsters in our midst, and fallen in love with a wonderful woman. But all that comes crashing down when Henry learns that his old life isn't through with him yet. Not by a long shot . . . When a man named Stephen Gaines is found dead, shot point-blank in a rat-hole apartment, wasted by hunger and heroin, Henry sadly assumed he was the victim of another drug deal gone bad. But when the man is identified as Stephen Gaines, Henry learns they not only share a city . . . but a father. Now Henry must investigate the most personal story of his career-that of the brother he never knew, and the tragic and violent end to his life. Because for some reason Stephen had tried to enlist Henry's help. And as Henry begins to dig into Stephen's past, and his own, what he finds is more chilling than anything he's ever faced before. Because Stephen knew that something terrible was coming to the city. He died before he could stop it. And now it's Henry's turn . . .
