Five Cards, Underworld Money, and a Sharp Knife.
Jake Fallon can’t catch a break. He borrows and crashes a truck, and while getting checked out by the paramedics the other driver kicks his ribs in. He falls in love, only to end up dead a few days later.
Flynt and Steele are called to the hospital, and they find a degenerate gambler with Aces and Eights, the dead man’s hand, stuck to his chest with a six-inch switchblade, and a broken-hearted nurse.
When shadowy figures are spotted in the halls of the hospital, and a potential suspect seems hidden under every rock, where do Flynt and Steele look first? As they dig deeper even legitimate businessmen begin to seem dirty and suspect.
With Steele’s wife becoming weaker by the day, his mind is torn in two directions, as he realizes he faces certain sorrow. Meanwhile, Flynt’s life has taken a turn for the better. Can their personal lives draw the two mismatched partners closer together, or widen the gap?
Join Flynt and Steele as they are dealt the strangest case yet. They'll have to go all in to catch a killer, but also make sure they don't get dealt a Dead Man's Hand of their own in the process.
If you like a taut, page-turning mystery with a fat dose of betrayal, look no further than this fourth outing for fiction’s most mismatched cops – Flynt and Steele.
