He soon finds a mysterious crime family is involved -- and has gone to great lengths to hide what they've done. They may seem untouchable, but Mack knows better... bad football loses before good football wins...

Reviews

[Joe Vitucci · Rating 3 out of 5]

Another story set around Asheville, NC. Mentions specifically the Vanderbilts and the French Broad river, and tubing, and meth and other bad things. It's a good story, but the downside is the author sometimes starts these rants about different issues, which is a distraction from the story and somewhat tiresome.

Mack is back! Disturbing crime, strong sense of mystery, vivid characters, and an interesting setting (you gotta love Asheville). It's a page-turner.
