Necessary Vengeance

Fast-rising FBI agent Thaddeus Pennock loves to catch bad guys and beautiful women but never mixes the two -- until now. Pennock and his savvy partner investigate a brutal drive-by shooting that has the earmarks of a mob hit. A fiery Congresswoman publicly accuses a secretive businessman of being a drug lord and the mastermind of the murder. Pennock must penetrate the facades of these two powerful enemies who manipulate events to influence his investigation and bring each other down. The only thing harder for Pennock than discovering who ordered the hit is preventing the killer from striking again. A master at hiding in plain sight and fueled by a singular vengeance, the killer forges a bloody trail over two continents, stalking the murder victim’s former lover, a strong-willed Argentinian beauty who draws Pennock in up to his heart. The plot races from the sinister world of organized crime in Philadelphia to dirty DC politics and from deadly deception in Buenos Aires to a murderous ambush in the rolling hills of Pennsylvania horse country, with provocative characters and unexpected twists at every turn.
