Blood Tracks: A Tess Grey Thriller

At the start of this brutal series launch from Hilton (The Devil’s Anvil and nine other Joe Hunter thrillers), Portland, Maine, PI Tess Grey travels to Louisiana, accompanied by Nicolas “Po” Villere. A convicted murderer who served time in the notorious Angola prison, Po is from the area where Crawford Wynne, a key witness against imprisoned crime syndicate leader Alberto Suarez, is in hiding. Witnesses against Suarez are either killed or disappear, and attorney Emma Clancy wants the duo to find Wynne before Suarez does. The dynamic between Po and Tess grows from distrust to wary respect to partnership as they learn about each other while dealing with ex-con Pinky Leclerc, gang leader Trey Robinson, and the Cottonmouths motorcycle gang. Locating Wynne only serves to send them back to Maine, where a sadistic killer has started to bring the fight home to them. Po and Tess make an appealing odd couple. [em](Mar.) [/em]
