Description
From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Allan Leverone comes DEAD RECKONING, the fourth in the Jack Sheridan Pulp Thriller series written in homage to the old-time paperback pulp novels from decades past: Jack Sheridan is back on The Organization's roster of operatives, although he's not exactly thrilled with the idea. His first assignment upon his return is to eliminate a mob kingpin with a penchant for running down innocent people in drunk driving accidents.But right from the start, there are problems, the first being the fact that the subject of the contract is already dead in his home when Jack arrives to kill him. The second being the police storm the house moments later, with Jack still inside.Now he must elude capture and hunt down the people who tried to set him up on a murder rap, while staying one step ahead of a dogged homicide investigator. If he's not careful, his first assignment back with The Organization might just be his last...Sometimes, whether through money, status or influence, the most vile and evil members of society are able to evade all traditional forms of justice.When that happens, these killers, rapists, and sociopaths - men and occasionally women with no regard for even the most basic rules of civilized society - face a deadlier fate than prison: The Organization, a secret band of assassins working to protect the very society that shuns them, by eliminating the most dangerous predators.Fast-moving and deadly, DEATH PERCEPTION will take you back to the days of pulp fiction, where violence lurked around every corner and nothing was quite as it seemed...**********Praise for Allan Leverone: "The successor to Michael Crichton has landed.
