Some of the most powerful people in the world want to kill Michael Nicholas, and only his brother Alex can save him. The problem is Alex is dead.

It’s been almost a year since crime boss Alex Nicholas was killed on his home turf in Queens, and his straight-arrow brother Michael inherited the elder Nicholas’s loan sharking and betting business. Unfortunately for Michael, he also inherited Alex’s enemies – and there seem to be a lot of them.

As Michael learns to navigate a world he once shunned and feared, he’s both helped and hindered by his friends, his wife Samantha, his bodyguard Sindy Steele, who’s every bit as lethal as she is stunning, and his brother Alex, who may not be as dead as everyone thinks …

It’s time for Michael Nicholas to go from hunted to hunter.
