Inhaltsangabe

Calvin Watters was supposed to be playing football on Sundays.

Instead, he’s running for his life.

Once one of football’s brightest prospects, Calvin thought his dreams were over when a devastating injury ended his career. Now working as a debt collector in Las Vegas, he finds himself framed for the murder of a powerful casino owner—and hunted by both the police and the real killer.

As the city’s biggest homicide investigation in years unfolds, veteran detective Dale Dayton is one of the few people who believes Calvin may be innocent. But proving it won’t be easy. Every piece of evidence points in the wrong direction, and someone is determined to keep the truth buried.

With the Las Vegas police closing in and a professional assassin determined to eliminate him before he can clear his name, Calvin must uncover the real killer before he becomes the next victim.

Dead Man's Hand is the gripping first novel in the Calvin Watters Mystery series, introducing a compelling new hero readers won't soon forget. Packed with murder, corruption, relentless suspense, and unexpected twists, it's the perfect place to begin Calvin Watters' journey.
