The famous and the dead - T. Jefferson Parker

'She had first told her disturbing story over the phone to a girlfriend recently moved to Los Angeles, who happened to have just read a piece in the L.A. Times Magazine about a cool G-man. The G-man was the Special Agent in Charge of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms in Los Angeles, and Mary Kate took a very long Trailways journey to come find him.' What Mary Kate has to say about drug cartels and gun trafficking is going to seriously impact on the life of ATF officer Charlie Hood. The Famous and the Dead follows The Jaguar, published in the UK and Ireland by Sandstone Press in 2012, and is equally gripping and intense.
