When the elite legal firms of Beverly Hills need problems erased for their most select clients, not argued in court or boardrooms, they contract downward to lesser law offices—ethically compromised “ambulance chasers” with no qualms about getting their hands dirty. Shadowy intermediaries are summoned like genies and the best of these is Tag, a veteran fixer with a brutal past, a dark personal code, and a clear warning to clients: vengeance comes at a cost they may not be able to afford in the end. But in Los Angeles, the rich are used to getting what they want, making Tag a very busy and rich man.
Contracted for a devastating act of retribution against Walter Greene, a Hollywood mogul with a dark legacy of sexual abuse, Tag penetrates Greene’s guarded world to exact the revenge his client sought, winning a battle but starting a war. Far from learning his lesson, Greene enlists his own fixer. Morgan is competent, detached, and even more ruthless. But instead of two champions from mythology facing off, like David and Goliath, or Achilles and Hector, Tag and Morgan don’t see themselves as enemies but friendly competitors in an illicit market that’s booming.
What follows is a shadowy war of revenge and spiraling violence, well outside the boundaries of the law and society.
After a haunting triple murder, Owens and her partner vow to step in when victims make twenty-seven unanswered calls for help, starting with a serial abuser linked to a missing woman. As Owens digs deeper, she uncovers McMillan’s ongoing sabotage and evidence tying him to the disappearances of multiple women. With the help of her partner, a crusading lawyer, and McMillan’s abused mistress seeking revenge, Owens devises a bold plan to take down the untouchable billionaire once and for all.

Can the world’s biggest drug organization do business like a Fortune 500 company? Diego Valverde, a native of exceptionally peaceful and heavily taxed Spain, convinces the head of the Sinaloa Cartel to implement a program to improve the lives of the rural poor in Mexico through direct payments from drug profits, a form of self-taxation on their enormous illegal gains. Diego’s plan also calls for a unilateral renunciation of violence. While this strategy removes them from the radar of America anti-drug forces, it’s seen as a sign of weakness by the nihilistically murderous Zeta Cartel.
Two exceptionally talented DEA agents, one a cynical U.S. Army war veteran, the other an ambitious young woman, lead the American law enforcement interdiction effort with the aid of an incorruptible colonel in the Mexican Special Forces with a hand-picked team of elite soldiers. Another major player siding with the authorities is the head of security for Sinaloa who proves to be a ruthless warrior and invaluable in this war with the Zeta Cartel that becomes a deadly cat and mouse game of ambushes, intimidation, renditions, and assassination.
