      About This Book

      Clement Mansell knows how easy it is to get away with murder. The cool killer is already back on the Detroit scene -- thanks to some nifty courtroom moves by his lawyer -- and he's feeling invincible enough to execute a crooked judge on a whim. Lieutenant Raymond Cruz thinks the "Oklahoma Wildman" crossed the line long before this latest outrage, and he's determined to see that the hayseed psycho meets an end he deserves, with a gun pointed at him. But that means a good cop, having to play somewhat fast and loose with the rules... in order to maneuver Mansell into a wild Midwest showdown that he can't walk away from.
