Fans of James Patterson and Michael Connelly will love C.M. Sutter

Detective Jesse McCord looks forward to a weekend with his college buddy Joe, but gang wars in Chicago disrupt his plans. Homicide investigations—and they’re now on overtime due to some weekend murders—leave little time for leisure.

During a neighborhood canvass of the most recent crime scene, two detectives dodge a drive-by shooter, and in the chaos, Detective Shawn Potter loses his phone.

What seems like a minor mishap turns into a nightmare when the shooters discover the phone contains not only police information but personal information too. Armed and dangerous, the gang poses a serious threat to the detectives and their loved ones. Anyone who stands in their way could also end up in their sights.


Editorial
“With an old college pal coming into town for the weekend, Homicide Detective Jesse McCord hopes for a short workweek at his Chicago precinct, but a spate of gang-related shootings shatters those plans. Then, when another officer’s personal cell phone ends up in the hands of the gang members they’re after, a dangerous game of cat and mouse begins, threatening not only the PD but also some of their loved ones.” Angela M., Line Editor, Red Adept Editing

CM Sutter has done it again!

In the latest installment of the Jesse McCord series, the team is trying to pin down gang members wreaking havoc in Chicago when two detectives get into a gun fight. One loses his phone and is grazed by a bullet. The gang members find the phone and go on a kidnapping spree with the information they find on it. Can Jesse and the team get ahead of the gang and find their missing loved ones in time?

Excellent Crime Thriller

In Their Sights is probably classed as a police procedural but it’s far more the typical novel in that classification. The characters buzz with life some with evil intent others with goodness. The danger level grows throughout drawing the reader deeper into the plot. I enjoyed reading it.

The scary part of this story is that it could be true. Chicago gongs are shown as a real threat. Sorry to see Jesse going away.
