Mackenzie August, the stalwart big-city detective, returns to his hometown to open a private cop shop, in the first book from bestselling author Alan Lee.

Knock, knock...

The first client at Mackenzie's new office is a stunner. She's also the sheriff.

She tasks him with catching a gang general, and do it before more girls go missing.

Mackenzie agrees to go undercover teaching at the inner city school, to bring down the general. It's an impossible task; he'd be a bull in a china shop. He could lose his license and people might get hurt. But if anyone can pull it off...

It's the next great private detective, Mackenzie August.
