Indianapolis attorney Brigit Bauer has a vested interest in protecting her neighborhood from an unknown threat. She uncovers a thread which leads her through a maze of holding companies to the Chicago mob presence in her city. A journey which may very well cost her, her life.
Paul Patrone isn't the innocuous real estate developer he seems to be. His real job is laundering money for the mob. With his greed for wealth and recognition driving him, he's on a collision course with Bree's crusade to stop the evil in her community.
As a security consultant, Tony Pendrake is used to putting his life on the line for his clients. So it isn't much of a surprise when he offers to help Bree. Of course, he hasn't told her he intends to stake his interest in her while doing so.
Three head strong people. All with their own agendas. A final lethal encounter.
For the last twenty-one years, I've been a lawyer practicing everything from criminal defense to probate. A regular Renaissance lawyer. More recently, I gave up trying to change the system and have concentrated my practice to being a professional neutral--which means I try to help people solve their problems before they go in front of a judge or jury. My philosophy is if you can't work within the system -- find a better system. Aiding and abetting me in my life's goal of changing the world is my Pathologist husband of twenty-eight years and my teenage son who is trying hard to be cool right now. We also own a large cat--or, more accurately, he owns us. We're still trying to figure that one out. A life-long Hoosier, I currently live in Carmel, Indiana, a suburb of Indianapolis.
