Mouthpiece

HE’S THE HONEST SON OF A NOTORIOUS GANGSTER. NOW HE’S HUNTING THE MEN WHO MURDERED HIS FATHER.

Construction manager Mat Lawrence spent his life avoiding his father’s criminal empire. But when the old man is brutally murdered and a million dollars disappears, Mat returns to New York with only one objective—to find the killers and uncover the truth.

His only lead is the fast-talking mob attorney known as the Mouthpiece. Following a trail of gangsters, double-crosses and deadly betrayals through the city’s criminal underworld, Mat soon discovers that revenge is only part of the mystery. Somewhere behind his father’s murder lies a conspiracy worth killing to protect—and every step closer to the truth puts Mat squarely in the killers’ sights.

Every ally hides another secret.

Every clue leads deeper into the underworld.

And somewhere behind a murdered crime boss and a missing fortune waits the one man determined to escape justice.

Filled with escalating suspense, organized crime, deadly conspiracies and relentless action, Mouthpiece is a classic crime adventure that delivers unforgettable twists and keeps readers turning pages until the final showdown.

Four complete crime adventures in one volume. Also included are:

Flame City — Detective Tom Delaney investigates a wave of suspicious fires sweeping the city. But when the prime suspect becomes his own father—the respected fire chief known as “Old Blaze”—Tom must solve an arson conspiracy before murder destroys both his family and the city.

Calling Squad Cars! — Released on bail after being accused of helping a ruthless gang commit a string of crimes, a police dispatcher risks everything to expose the conspiracy from the inside.

The Grease Spot — Bill Millen has a knack for reaching accident scenes before anyone else. But when he beats the police to a wreck involving two desperate bank robbers, he suddenly becomes their unwilling getaway driver—and their ticket to freedom.
