African American Crime Fiction

When a teenage girl witnesses a carjacking gone bad, she is marked for death by a crime boss. A lawyer and an enforcer forge an uneasy alliance to protect the girl from a hit man with an agenda of his own. Soon after, Paul Elliott - lawyer and close friend of the witness's family - begins counseling them and becomes entangled in the murder plot. As the long-simmering feud between Rico - the white enforcer - and the hitman John D'Angelo reaches boiling point, bodies start to pile up in rapid succession...and old scores will be settled.

After enforcer Richard “Rico” Sanders stepped in to protect his girlfriend from a local mob boss’s hot-headed nephew, all hell broke loose. When the smoke cleared, the nephew had vanished and three goons lay dying where they’d stood. Fighting for his life, Rico was alive but gravely wounded. Out of the hospital but not fully recovered, he needed a place to crash - a place where he wouldn’t be found. A place like the cabin owned by lawyer Paul Elliott, whose life Rico had saved more than once.

Upstanding officer, dedicated daughter, or stone cold killer? She's taking crime to an unspeakable level. At a very young age, Crystal knew that she wanted to be a police officer just like her father. Crystal's dad was nothing less of a superhero in her eyes and she was flabbergasted every time she caught a glimpse of him on television in his superhero uniform. Of course, as she got older she realized that it was just the evening news reporting local crime, but that didn't undercut her admiration for him.
