Hacker McKaybees knew the old man was trouble the day his father reentered his life a year ago. Yet some sense of twisted curiosity, or undesirable loyalty to a man he didn't know, drove him to accept the request to help investigate what Hacker felt would be a wasted effort: solve a murder for which a convicted man sat in prison. As his foot hit the first step of his father's building, he knew that before the sun rose over Manhattan, the smell of blood would overpower odors of local Soho residents preparing breakfast. He slowed as he heard his father arguing with someone. Without wanting to alert them and causing the carnage the old man was famous for, he pressed the office door open with the barrel of his Glock. A hinge creaked. Five seconds later, the intruder's body with a hole in his chest, dropped. The old man, still seated, his .45 leaking a tendril of smoke, looked disappointed but satisfied. Hacker knew he was in deep enough that there was only one way out, solve the murder. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

The convict's sister, Peggy, convinces Black that the near perfect evidence collected by the police, DNA and all, were fabricated to frame her brother, Reggie Jones.
Ethel’s widower, Perry Reiser, insists that Black not take the case, and when Black refuses to comply, pulls a gun to enforce his demand.
Persian Gulf Vet Michael “Hacker” McKaybees interrupts Perry Reiser’s enraged confrontation with Marlowe Black. Abruptly, Reiser turns his silenced pistol on McKaybees. Before he can fire a single shot, Black, fires a .45 caliper bullet through Reiser’s chest.
Before the shooting, Black tells McKaybees that his decision to help free Jones is based on a gut feeling. McKaybees calls it an act of insanity.
However, Perry Reiser’s rash reaction forces McKaybees to reassess his opinion and he agrees to help his estranged father with an investigation that nearly costs him his life.
