The second, breath-taking crime novel in the acclaimed Lee Henry Oswald series. "Truly satisfying...Hunsicker's characters take on a life of their own and his action is amazing." Crimespree Magazine Dallas PI Lee Oswald is busy working for a preacher, looking for a stolen file, when he agrees to help a state senator who is being threatened - if the politician doesn't change his vote on a controversial environmental bill, his family will be killed, one by one, until he does. The two cases violently converge, making Oswald both a target for killers and wanted by the police for a murder he didn't commit. The only way out is to confront a dark secret from his past that could destroy him. "Complex, interesting characters [and] relentless narrative drive. Compelling reading." Booklist "Hunsicker is a slick, smooth writer and Oswald is a great noir character." Omaha World Herald "Hunsicker provides solid characterizations and great descriptions. You can almost feel the sweat off of the brows or see the drops of blood as they splatter." Lansing State Journal "Hunsicker has a wonderfully ironic sense of Dallas society and an even funnier take on those pretensions." The Dallas Morning News "Lee Henry Oswald should earn Dallas a colored pushpin on the wisecracking-gumshoe map." Texas Monthly
