Cut You Down

Vancouver PI Dave Wakeland is back-this time staring down the knife edge of corruption and murder. No one knows what happened to Tabitha Sorensen. The brilliant but troubled student seems to have vanished, leaving a deadly trail of missing millions and links to a notorious family of criminals. Hired to find her, Wakeland matches wits and fists with suburban gangsters, corrupt authorities, and a contract killer with a fondness for blades-one of which seems destined for Wakeland's throat. Aided by Sonia Drego, a police officer and former lover with dangerous secrets of her own, Wakeland must uncover the deadliest killer that the morally challenged young detective has ever faced. From the back alleys of a rapidly changing Vancouver, to the wilds of Washington, to a suburban sprawl where things aren't what they seem, Wakeland crosses borders-and lines-in a treacherous game of cat and mouse that pushes him to his limits, and threatens to leave everything he cares for in pieces.
