To March Into Hell

by Ron Parham

Pinnacle Award in Best Thriller, Winter 2018, Awarded by the National Association of Book Entrepreneurs Jake Delgado—hard-drinking, maverick private investigator—is finally getting his life in order with his new partner, Amos Stillwater. He's cut down on his drinking and even falls for a local bartender in the Gas Lamp district of San Diego. But his comfortable life is turned upside down when he receives news that his older brother, Freddie, has been found living in Tijuana and is in trouble. Jake is lured down to Tijuana to find him, not knowing that Raza, also known as El Matador (the killer)—the main hit man for the Tijuana drug cartel and who just got out of prison—is waiting. Two years earlier, Jake killed a terrorist, Angel Rojas, to save the life of three kidnapped teenage girls. Raza is Angel's brother and he will do anything to avenge Angel's death. Jake is drawn into the underbelly of Tijuana and, along with his partner and a few friends, fights for his life and the lives of his friends against Raza. It takes every last ounce of Jake's strength and courage to march into the hell of Baja California, knowing that he may never walk back out alive.
