Former Homicide Detective, Ray Quinn, was working as a night watchman.  He had survived a violent shooting that killed his partner and put him out of commission.  He hid his pain in a bottle.

When a pastor and a exotic dancer are found murdered in the pastor room at the condo, the conclusion is   murder/suicide or is it. With the help of the pastor’s sister Ray is thrown right back into investigating, with an unlikely pair to help. Pam the pastors sister and Crevis Creighton a bumbling want a be police officer, and a modern day Barney Fife.

When I first started reading this  book, I was reminded of a Mike Hammer movie. I could picture  Detective Quinn  as he narrates what is going on.  This book really kept me on the edge to keep reading to see what was happening next.  This  is a excellent suspense filled thriller.  As he digs deeper into the investigation, someone out there is determined to keep him from learning the truth.  Just how deep is the corruption and where and who is it leading to. 

This is a  Christian Suspense ,  that does not depend on the bad language and sexual content, yet it is not preachy  either. It you enjoy a good mystery you won’t want to miss this book.
