Ripples And Repercussions

P.I. Curt D'Accio is having a bad day.

The police are taking over his case concerning a political candidate that's being falsely smeared because his leading suspect was just murdered. The records for a two-year-old murder conviction he's been hired to re-examine arrive incomplete due to an equipment glitch. A close friend is having a meltdown from a personally traumatic event. Then a sniper shoots him.

 Though seriously wounded, Curt survives the assassination attempt. The second attempt draws him into a DEA investigation and its hunt for a ruthless cartel's drug pipeline. A hunt that unexpectedly takes a personal turn. Then there's the sociopathic shifter family, one of whom he's positive committed the murder his client's brother was framed for. Both investigations are dangerous, but Curt doesn't plan to stop. Others, however, plan to see that he does. Permanently.
