A note for parents

This is an adult hard-boiled detective novel featuring a morally complex protagonist in violent, crime-heavy situations. The story involves serious crimes (rape and murder), heavy drinking and drug use, frequent profanity, and brutal action sequences. While Milo pursues justice for a murdered woman, his methods and lifestyle are decidedly adult-oriented, making this unsuitable for teen readers under 16.

Milo Milodragovitch is back in Texas, running the bar of his dreams and trying to do a little private investigating on the side. His relationship with his woman is on the rocks, especially since he had an overnight fling with Molly McBride, the classy dame with the taste for single malt scotch. Now, Molly's persuaded Milo to help her search for and bring to justice the lowlife who raped and murdered her sister. What appears to be a simple stakeout turns hideously violent when it's discovered that Molly's prey is no ordinary miscreant, but a whirl-wind of brutality with major political connections. Soon Milo is calling on connections of his own, including shady computer geniuses, taciturn bodyguards, underground crank manufacturers, and his old pal C.W. "Sonny" Sughrue, in a plot that takes him from sweaty, dusty Mexico to the subzero mountains of Montana.
