Book Description:
The day starts like any other in L.A. The sun burns hot as the Santa Ana winds blow ash from mountain fires to coat the glittering city. But for private investigator Joe Pike, the city will never be the same again. His ex-lover, Karen Garcia, is dead, brutally murdered with a gun shot to the head.
Now Karen's powerful father calls on Pike (a former cop) and his partner, Elvis Cole, to keep an eye on the LAPD as they search for his daughter's killer--because in the luminous City of Angels, everyone has secrets, and even the mighty blue have something to hide. But what starts as a little procedural hand-holding turns into a deadly game of cat-and-mouse. For a dark web of conspiracy threatens to destroy Pike and Cole's twelve-year friendship--if not their lives. And L.A. just might be singing their dirge.

My first "Elvis Cole" read and I'm hooked-have already ordered two more. A great plotline with interwoven stories of revenge, love, friendship, loyalty and perserverence.

Robert Crais is a great mystery writer, and I love Elvis Cole and Pike!
Detective Elvis Cole and his friend of 12 years, former policeman Joe Pike find their relationship somewhat strained when Joe's ex-lover, Karen, is horribly murdered.
Karen's father asks Pike and Cole to find the killer and the investigation turns into a deadly game.
PI Joe Pike is called on by his ex-lover's father to solve her murder.
THIS IS THE BEST 'COLE' BOOK SO FAR, I'VE GOT SEVERAL TO GO!! LOVED IT!
