The Night Detectives

Praise for The Night Detectives.. "The partnership of secretive, pensive Peralta and anguished, impetuous Mapstone is intriguing." -Kirkus Reviews Former Phoenix Deputy David Mapstone and his old friend Sheriff Mike Peralta are investigating the death of a young Arizona woman who fell from a condo tower in San Diego. The police call Grace Hunter's death a suicide, but their client-her brother-doesn't buy it. Then shortly after hiring the team, he is gunned down, and police find multiple driver's licenses. Meanwhile, Grace's boyfriend also hires the pair to solve her death. Their work reveals hers was no suicide, and Grace is only the first victim of a murderous spree reaching into the world of high-priced call girls, their millionaire clients, the white-supremacist movement, and a high-stakes kidnapping.
