A secret list and a nine-fingered man push Acapulco’s first female police detective to the edge in this exciting companion to the award-winning Detective Emilia Cruz mystery series.
After Emilia stops a gang attack in an upscale neighborhood, the head of the police union initiates an internal investigation by implying that she was bribed by a rival drug gang. Playing all the angles, he makes Emilia a fateful offer.
For the right price, he’ll make the investigation go away.
Spoils of the attack include a black notebook filled with names. Convinced it is a list of dirty cops, Emilia knows she’s in danger. In a police department riddled with corruption, how long until someone finds out she has the list and comes gunning for her?
As her career teeters on the brink of disaster, a gruesome discovery is made at the Acapulco morgue. One of the dead attackers wears a grafted finger from another man.
Suddenly, Emilia is drowning in an ocean of false identities and criminal intrigue.
The maker of the list knows these waters well.
