John Locke, professional bodyguard, returns with another tricky job. This time he's guarding a drug baron returning to Mexico with unfinished business in exchange for his testimony against others higher up in the drug world. Unfortunately, no one (other than Locke) seems to be who they appear in this tale of backstabbing, turncoats, and danger. A few characters are likable in the novel, but readers cheering for Locke may feel apprehensions many times.
I'll be reading the next in the series. This volume was written in the 1980s, with perspectives of the time. Barnao also writes as mystery writer Ted Wood, too, but the styles of the two series are definitely different. The style of writing, however, is still easy to read.
