Story
Cody Hoyt, while a brilliant cop, is an alcoholic struggling with two months of sobriety when his mentor and AA sponsor Hank Winters is found burned to death in a remote mountain cabin. At first it looks like the suicide of a man who's fallen off the wagon, but Cody knows Hank better than that. Sober for fourteen years, Hank took pride in his hard-won sobriety and never hesitated to drop whatever he was doing to talk Cody off a ledge. When Cody takes a closer look at the scene of his friend's death, it becomes apparent that foul play is at hand.

Publisher's summary
A gritty, whip-smart thriller from acclaimed author Harry Hunsicker.
For once, things are going well for former DEA contractor Jon Cantrell. He's got a real job as a fix-it man for a law firm that specializes in handling government contracts. But when his ex-girlfriend Piper asks him to meet with a high-ranking police official and Cantrell is forced to take an off-the-books assignment to find a missing boy, everything starts to unravel.
Not helping the situation is his client, Deputy Chief Raul Delgado, an up-and-coming politico carrying his own tragic burdens he doesn't like to dwell on. Forty years earlier, a racist cop brutally killed Delgado's brother. Now, in a weird twist of fate, Delgado works for the very department that altered his life.
As Cantrell proceeds, he uncovers a puzzling link between Delgado, the missing boy, and a series of vigilante murders. As the link becomes clearer, Cantrell struggles to stay alive and find the missing child.

When the call came in over the radio, Sheriff's Deputy Rafe Franco thought he would be responding to a typical domestic dispute. But he didn't know that the perp was St. Louis's most notorious mobster - or that the victim was his college sweetheart, Lisa Tobin. Now, as Rafe is drawn into a web of crime and danger, he discovers that his feelings for Lisa are stronger than ever. And her three-year-old daughter, Chloe, is melting his heart in ways he'd never imagined possible. But Lisa's ex is a powerful sociopath who will stop at nothing to get her back - or destroy her.

Innocent citizens are being killed - and others set up - seemingly orchestrated by a mysterious ski-masked man.

Gunther knows that he must pursue the case to its conclusion, wherever it leads.

3.5 rounded up to 4. Started off good, but dragged
The first two hours had me excited until the middle part came. Hours went by without anything happening to the main characters. The cop in the jumpsuit reveal at the ending was no surprise. I knew it was him when told his two subordinates to investigate John. Even when he killed that reporter in the middle of the book. Raul had secrets throughout and the girl he grew up with was too fancy to live in a border town with minorities. Anywho, this book had branching paths that seem to go nowhere. The kid was hiding in plane sight, Raul was working against the people I believe he hired through Piper to find the kid. I'm spoiling too much, overall a 3.5, the narration is the only reason why it's a 3.5. Story was ultimately none sense with the possibility of Piper expecting as the cliffhanger.

Good Follow Up to The Contractors
I would guess that the negative reviews for this book come mostly from those who haven't read or listened to The Contractors, the first book in this series.
An understanding of John and Piper's relationship is pretty foundational to the story. This book carries forward the theme of two people with damaged pasts trying to get along.
The story was good. I listened to this book, and I have to say Luke Daniels is a master at reading these stories. No confusion about who is speaking. He is a treasure.
