Book Description
How much would you pay for an hour of kinky sex with a beautiful woman? One thousand? Four thousand? More? How about with your life? That appears to be the case with an elite escort service in New York for which scantily-clad bodies and dead bodies seem to go hand in hand. Enter Frank Boff, the morally-challenged but irresistible rogue investigator. Boff is hired to find the killer of a legendary Cuban boxer who defected to the States. The boxer's death was an execution. One bullet to the forehead. One behind each ear. The questions facing Boff are why was the boxer killed, and who did it? In order to find the answers, Boff ventures once again onto the Dark Side, where things aren't always what they appear to be. As he investigates, new bodies start piling up. At first glance, the stiffs seem unconnected. But when Boff begins to connect the dots, he realizes he may be up against powerful people as sinister and dangerous as any he's ever butted heads with. Making matters worse, they're gunning for him. First they ransack his apartment and clock his son on the head with a gun. Then they wire a bomb under his car. Suddenly it's more than just a case he was hired to do. Now it's personal. Dead-set on making the people behind the murders pay, Boff orchestrates a dark, twisted endgame scenario that turns the hunters into the hunted and steamrolls toward the only conclusion that will satisfy him: a bloodletting.

Pages : 352
Book Description
What would you do if your best friend was killed right in front of you, and the assassin fled without a trace and was never found? Would you wait forever for justice to run its course, or take it into your own hands? What would you do if you were a private investigator specializing in defending indicted felons but was forced to switch to the other side of the street to hunt down a killer? If your family is threatened along the way, and someone tries to kill you, would bringing the murderer to justice satisfy you? Or would you want something more? Welcome to the murky world of boxer Danny Cullen and former legendary DEA agent Frank Boff, a world where the line between right and wrong gets bent out of shape and the only real satisfaction is vengeance. They are the unlikeliest of teams. Cullen is a disciplined professional boxer who plays by the rules. Boff is a maverick investigator who believes anything goes as long as he doesn't get caught doing it. They have nothing in common except the mission: find out who killed Cullen's best friend, world champion boxer Julio Babbas. Neither attempts to hide their disdain for each other. But like it or not, they find themselves travel partners on a journey into a Shadow World where Cullen's friend lived and died. What they find there shocks Cullen and eventually pulls him over to the Dark Side, a place Boff calls home. Constantly in conflict, they find a common ground: find the killer and seek a punishment more just than justice: "The Hurting Game."
