Victor Headley Boeken

Lisa Hanley has cheated death. Shot seven times, twice in the head, she should be lying on a slab in the morgue. But survive she did. Now her family want revenge, not only for her attempted murder, but also for the theft of the cash she was carrying. Detective Louis Burrows has not witnessed such violence in a long time. The killer even took the trouble of burning Lisa's fingertips to stop the body from being identified. He knows this attempted murder has all the markings of a gagland killing, and he knows there will be reprisals. The FBI have asked the US attorney's office to investigate ties between drug enforcement agents and a known Mafia figure - Sal. Is the Mafia linked to Lisa's attempted murder, and will the streets of New York once again be bathed in the blood of gangland brothers?
