The left side of his face is scarred and grotesque, his wife and kids abandoned him, he drinks too much on a daily basis, and his work-life has devolved into a laughable, boring pursuit of tracking down lost dogs of the wealthy. If it weren't for his devoted and slightly infatuated neighbor, Aurora, his only human contact would be an occasional visit from his former, cop partner.Then, one day, Jack is summoned to the home of a wealthy widow, who hires him to locate her kidnapped, blonde step-daughter. It's a welcome break, carrying a hefty pay day. Initially, there are no clues, fewer leads and no real suspects beyond a seemingly harmless, Russian boyfriend, and the widow's mysterious butler. However, after a lucky break, Jack begins to slowly unravel a far-reaching, nefarious scheme that leads him into the Mob underworld and a trail of missing, blonde teenage girls.Masterfully-crafted, McManus is an edgy thriller that will keep the reader continually guessing as to the true inspiration behind the kidnapping, and the real reason for Jack's slow, painful descent into a chaotic nightmare.Jack McManus is a well developed main character with a complex layer of emotions.Just when you think you know who the suspect of the crime is something will throw you off!
