Rate this book
It's the early '80s and heroin is king. It's all about the money; there's no loyalty. The only rule is to get even. Killings of Detroit and other mafia across the nation--all on the 22 nd of the month--means someone is trying to get even with the mob. The FBI is puzzled. Team members work relentlessly to discover what appears to be an international conspiracy to get even. Detective Clark Philips and his team of police officers and FBI agents end up in a direct confrontation with the Mafia's big bosses. Their probes into Mafia connections with the Catholic Church provide new revelations and a twist on those responsible for the number of body mutilations and killings. Father Dom's digging into Mafia ties with the Catholic Church uncovers surprising mafia manipulation.

About the author

Les Cochran

Former university president becomes "steamy" novelist!

That wasn't an easy transition considering he had always written books, papers, and documents using a very academic format and perspective.

Learning to write fiction was a major endeavor, but he stuck to it until his first novel was published. Two more novel are in progress, thus creating a trilogy.

His storyline is based what he knows best - - the underbelly of academic life. His main character, Steve Schilling, reflects some of Les' own characteristics such as Tanqueray on the rocks with three olives, doning a red fedora for football games and many more little teasers.

Les Cochran served as public educator for thirty-eight years; beginning as a high school teacher and concluding as president of Youngstown State University.

His writing is inspired by his life experiences at several universities as well as insights gained while chairing more than twenty institutional accreditations and NCAA evaluation teams. At each university he evaluated administrative procedures, academic operations and the behind-the-scenes inter-workings.
