Publisher's summary

Detective Virgil Jones is about to discover that the genesis of a friendship from long ago wasn't just a beginning. It could be his end.

Pete Long has it made. As a star high school basketball player, he's just received a full athletic scholarship from Purdue University and is already being scouted by the pro team. But when Pete meets up with a group of street players, something terrible happens. And Pete's life is changed forever.

Virgil's wife, Sandy, the lieutenant governor of the State of Indiana is working with the governor and Senator Michael Wright to pass legislation that has the potential to change the voting system, not only in their state, but all across the country. But not everyone wants the vote to pass. In fact, there are people who will do anything to ensure that it doesn't.

Rick Said, owner of the sonic drilling units that made Virgil and Sandy wealthy, has a problem. The sonic drill units operate in part via artificial intelligence, something Said's engineers know nothing about. And when the company Said contracted with for the AI technology decides to discontinue their relationship, Said asks Virgil to find out why.

But Virgil has something that takes priority over Said's request. Senator Wright's son, Garrett, has been murdered. Was the murder a message to the senator to back away from the bill or something else entirely? As Virgil and the rest of the Major Crimes Unit begin to look into Wright's death, they not only discover a twisted web of lies and deceit, they find themselves caught in the crosshairs of a killer.

Oh no I don't understand the ending!

This is another amazing story in the Virgil Jones series. But oh boy it is the last one I have and it ended on kind of a cliffhanger with information that I don't understand. This is something that Mr. Scott doesn't usually do so I'm wondering if I missed something. I might have to go back and listen to the last chapter again. We get a cameo appearance of the Pope twins in this book and their sidekicks Woo and his wife Linda. An old friend comes back from the past so we get to go back in time to when it was Mason that was the cop. I enjoyed this book every bit as much as the rest and I hope that it isn't the last book. I'm going to have to search the web as I can't let these wonderful characters go yet. Give any book in this series a try and you will be hooked!
