EPIC Justice: A Texas mystery

Private investigator Frank Knott goes undercover at a government agency in El Paso trying to discover who has been leaking sensitive information to a criminal enterprise.The first person Frank meets in the West Texas town is a surly motel clerk, an older woman depressed and unhappy over being stuck in what she considers a dead-end life. Although the meeting is brief, it portends what awaits him in the desert region where violence has claimed the lives of countless innocents and untold outlaws since the town was settled in 1680.As Frank goes about his mission, he quickly learns that surviving in the underbelly of El Paso still can test the mettle of the best of men.The characters he meets during his short work engagement almost instantly raise his suspicion that all of them have something to hide. When he witnesses a sheriff shaking down the bar owner in a nearby town, Frank can't help but wonder if this is an example of the good guys, how bad are the bad guys going to be.Throughout it all, a flashy blonde temptress proves to be a distraction that almost costs him his life.After two of his co-workers are killed, execution style, Frank discovers a threatening international connection that he hadn't counted on. His partner back in Atlanta warns Frank if the job becomes too dangerous, to pack it in and head home, but there's no backup in this former Marine.Frank and his sidekick, Blackjack, follow a treacherous path of clues that leads to crooks of all persuasions -- including KGB-trained assassins - before the mystery is solved.EPIC Justice is the third book in the Frank Knott crime/adventure trilogy.
