Inhaltsangabe

Detective Jeremy Fisk is out to stop an assassin let loose in New York City by a shadowy business cartel in this pulse-pounding follow up to the New York Times bestseller The Intercept, from Law & Order creator Dick Wolf.

Ten days after the Mexican presidential election, twenty-three bodies are discovered beheaded on the border between the U.S. and Mexico. Leading the investigation for the Mexican intelligence agency is 35-year-old Cecilia Garza, a raven-haired beauty who s notorious for her intensity and take-no-prisoners demeanor. Garza has learned the hard way that a forgiving nature can be an officer s worst enemy.

Upon the bodies of the cartel s victims she finds a carved symbol a Hummingbird and recognizes it as the mark of an assassin known only as Chuparosa, a man both feared and celebrated for his brutality. Even Garza, who has been pursuing him for years, knows almost nothing about him. Except that he s now headed to New York.

Meanwhile, it is United Nations week in Manhattan and a grieving Jeremy Fisk is dealing with the loss of his partner and lover and the trial of the Swedish terrorist responsible for her death. There s no time for grief, though, when you re responsible for the safety and security of the world s most powerful leaders. Complicating matters is the startling news of a mass murder in nearby Rockaway, where a dozen people have been found dead.

Fisk may not like Garza, the pushy new arrival from Mexico, but they re going to need each other if they stand a chance of finding and stopping Chuparosa. Soon they both realize that there s more to this threat than meets the eye and Fisk will have to learn the hard way that justice is not always blind.
