The Wicked Flee Where None Pursueth
(2024)(Book 14 in the Scott Jarvis, Private Investigator series)
A novel by Scott W Cook
Mix kidnapping, murder and lethal drugs and you get one titanic explosion…
Orlando private investigator Scott Jarvis is celebrating his birthday with friends and his new lover when one of Florida’s most powerful drug lords requests an audience. Apparently, a large shipment of cocaine was smuggled into the state resulting in a couple of murders… and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Apparently, the dope is poisoned and is headed for the streets where thousands of lives are at risk.
The next day, Harry O’Mally, Captain of OPD homicide, asks Scott to check up on his son. Kevin O’Mally has been screwing around with dope and his parents fear he’s getting in deeper than he can handle.
As Jarvis begins to dig, he soon discovers that the two incidents are related and that the stakes are even higher than anyone knows – someone is vying for power and wants to take down Florida’s biggest drug dealers and place themselves in ultimate power… and 200 kilos of poisoned blow just might topple the status quo.
Now, as the pressure increases, Jarvis has to find Kevin and unlock the secret of who’s behind the drug sting. As he gets closer, people begin to vanish and a mysterious assassin is one step ahead of Jarvis, killing everyone he’s pursuing one by one…
The clock is ticking as the death count rises – can Scott Jarvis solve this puzzle before his life, the state and perhaps the whole country is drowned in a flood of blood and deadly narcotics?
