James Robert Shibel, semi-retired, can’t seem to catch a break. Consultant to Hamblin County Sheriff’s Department. A member of Homeland Security. Ex-Black Ops/Special Forces finds himself thrust into a worst-case scenario. Observing the criminal trial of a sexual predator, Shibel discovers a dubious connection to a mega-church. A religious cult-The People’s Church. Governed by a Charismatic Personality. A man with connections to the Drug-Czars of Central and South America. The Reverend Jesse DuPont. The identity of Shibel’s alter ego, El Diablo Que Sonrie-The Devil, Who Smiles, is known to the religious fanatic. A man, willing to abduct Shibel, selling him for the sum of $20,000,000. Relying on skills learned in the jungles of Nicaragua, Shibel deals with an attempted kidnapping-his own. A bounty hunter-mercenary, hellbent on taking him prisoner. Delivering him to be executed, by the Latin Mafia!
