Pillage — Christopher Newman

Christopher Newman, best-selling author of the Lt. Joe Dante novels, is back with an exciting new series that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Meet Sean Malloy, a former FBI profiler hired by the Department of Defense to investigate violent crimes committed by U.S. forces on foreign soil. Now retired, Malloy runs a cannabis plantation in the Sierra foothills and is an outspoken advocate for medicinal marijuana use. In an unwanted turn of events in his now relatively peaceful life, Malloy is recruited by a U.S. Attorney in California to aid in a major case of corruption at the highest levels of the American government. In Pillage, he is once again deputized as a U.S. Marshal, this time for a case much closer to home -- mass killings and the theft of marijuana oil in multi-million-dollar proportions. Newman brings us head-first into the world of legal and illegal marijuana growth and trafficking, involving the Chinese underworld and a candidate for president of the United States. Action-packed, Pillage, is a timely and thrilling novel of non-stop suspense.
