Tom Stone : day of the dead
(Book)

"Double-cross. Revenge. And murder. It's just another Halloween in LA, until Detective Tom Stone takes action. Multiple murders with one grisly connection have Detectives Tom Stone and Jake Sharpe pursuing every lead. Their main suspect, Anthony Angelino, fresh out of prison, dreams of building a new empire, but his past quickly catches up to him. Once again he is on the run from the police and the drug cartel that tried to ruin him. The head of the cartel, Frank DeVito, tails Stone hoping the Detective's investigation will flush out Angelino. Then he can exact his revenge and claim what he says Angelino has stolen -- a large shipment of pure cocaine. Angelino's girlfriend, Sara, pleads for him to escape the deadly lifestyle. As the body count rises, Stone confronts the challenges in his relationship with Alisha Davidson, Angelino's defense attorney. Halloween dramatically twists into Day of the Dead celebrations as cocaine's promised riches weave a tale of bloody betrayal, shattered friendships, and loves both lost -- and won." --,Back cover.
