In the latest installment in Joe Ides superb series ( Washington Post ), the relentless, hard-bitten PI, Isaiah Quintabe, is faced with a nightmarish scenario when the love of his life is kidnapped by a maniacal hitman who bears a grudge against him. Named one of the Best Mystery Books of the Year by The Wall Street Journal - An International Thriller Award Nominee Danger has always followed IQ, a reality hes keenly aware of as hes laid up in a hospital bed, recovering from injuries sustained in his last case. Isaiah cannot help himself from being the hero, and any misery hes suffered as a result--wounds from a knife fight, gnawing paranoia--hes suffered alone. Yet as IQ recovers, five hundred miles from East Long Beach, hes unaware that Grace has been abducted by his sworn enemy, the professional hitman Skip Hanson. Skip is savage and psychotic, determined to punish Isaiah for sending him to prison and destroying his life. Now, Isaiah and his sometimes partner, ex-hustler Juanell Dodson, must track scant clues through L.A.s perilous landscape as Graces predicament grows more uncertain. A complication arises in the form of Winnie Hando, a homicide detective with something to prove. Stubborn and effective, Winnie sees Isaiahs efforts as an obstruction to the investigation and a possible embarrassment: an unlicensed PI cant be seen doing the departments job better than the department. Winnie tries to stop Isaiah while pursuing the case herself, their struggles clashing and slowing their progress. As the desperate hunt winds on, Isaiah fears that even if he can bring Grace home alive, things between them will never be the same. This latest series installment is an explosive collision of drug dealers, thieves, maniacs, shotguns, vicious dogs, stampeding horses, and Ides signature energy, grit, and profundity
