Resumen del Editor

From domestic war to barroom brawls, grad-student-turned-PI Neal Carey’s got more than studying on his plate.

Neal’s three-year confinement in a Chinese monastery is finally over—but his troubles are just beginning. The elusive financial benefactors who have bought his freedom expect a return on their investment. They want him to find Cody McCall, a two-year-old boy recently abducted by his father in a bitter Hollywood custody battle—a task that will propel Neal from the glittering Hollywood hills to the remote wilds of Nevada.

To find Cody, Neal has to turn outlaw in a land of two-bit casinos and roadside cathouses to infiltrate a vicious white supremacist group spouting hatred and dealing in terror. But the deeper undercover he goes, the deadlier the game becomes. Now Neal must force a showdown with the group’s crazed leader and find Cody before the missing toddler ends up lost in a world of unspeakable evil.

Crack another case with Neal Carey.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Splendid.” (New York Times Book Review)

"Winslow deftly balances hard-edged action with characters to really care about, all described in swift, sharp prose." (Publishers Weekly)

"Neal's latest adventure is full of entertaining derring-do." (Kirkus Reviews)

Good story and characters

I enjoyed this one (only my second, i think skipped one?) Anyway, i'll probably try another.

Winslow Back in Fighting Form!

After the disappointment of the awfully befuddled (and tedious) Buddha's Mirror, Don Winslow (and Neal Carey) come back with a white knuckle thriller, that rockets to a dazzler of an ending. Job well done -- I couldn't put it down!

wow what story

this book is an improvement from the last one Neal acts more mature and professional Joe is always my guy I enjoy this one the narrator has always did a great job

The best one so far

I thought the first one was decent enough, but the second one really dragged. This one had a much better pace and an element of suspense that the other two lacked. The characters that you’ve come to know already are by now three dimensional and endearing, and the new characters are interesting enough. This would have been a good ending to the series, but I’m interested to see where they go with the next two

Neal Carey Series review

Relatively speaking about this series – just another one of Winslow’s complicated, sometimes terrifying, sometimes witty , always entertaining tales.

4

The 4 would be a 5+ if the writing in first part of this book -
funny, funny stuff.contined to the end. But 2nd part of book snarled into a 3....so - 4 it is.
** some readers will like the action in part 2.
Worth a credit. Watch for this author- funny, funny.
I chuckled out loud.

Best one so far

I’m going through these in order and this one is my fav the entire book had my attention

A Wonderful Story!

I thoroughly enjoyed this story. Lots of twists and turns. The hero of the story often seemed to end up at the ends of blind alleys, and managed to get out of them by his wits.

another excellent Winslow book

this is the third in the series of Neal Carey again excellently written although I do feel that the last chapter maybe the last two chapters are rushed trying to tie up loose ends all in all though maybe it's just that I don't want the book to end in any case it was a pleasure reading filled up lots of hours and I'm going on to the next book

A slow burn with great finish

Loved the pace build up of the book. Best Neal Carey book yet, have recommended to others.
