Description

While investigating a suicide, Dave Brandstetter discovers a dead reporters final scoop.

Journalist Adam Streeter covered some of the most dangerous stories of the last quarter century, ranging from Cambodia to Siberia and anywhere troubled in between. Fearless, dashing, and more than a little resourceful, Streeter was renowned as much for his virtuosic writing as the shocking reality of what he uncovered along the way. Why would someone who lived so purposefully and with such demonstrable bravery turn a pistol on himself?

Insurance investigator Dave Brandstetter has seen enough suicides to know this isnt one. Suspecting treachery, he digs into Adams last story an unpublished investigation into the whereabouts of a vanished South American strongman, called El Carnicero, the Butcher and finds that Adams death shows every hallmark of his bloody style.

Dave quickly realized that some very powerful people would like him to drop the case. Daves own lover, Cecil, would like to see him take it easy for once. But Cecil knows Brandstetter is not so unlike the man whose death hes investigating. The truth, to someone like Brandstetter or Streeter, is worth the ultimate price. As he attempts to finish Adams story and get to the bottom of the journalists death, Dave will find more than a few people willing to make him pay it.
