There's only one reason for the illegal killing of so many sturgeon - caviar. And behind the highly profitable trade in caviar is the Russian mafia, dealing in things much more dangerous than fish eggs. Ex-DEA agent, John Marquez, now head of the undercover unit of the California Department of Fish and Game, is closing in on the sturgeon poachers when his key confidential informant disappears. The trail leads him into the middle of a deadly FBI operation and a web of conflicting loyalties. Fast-paced, thought-provoking and vivid, this eco-thriller pushes the tough but sensitive Marquez to the limit. "Dead Game" is a tale of unforgettable action and complex human emotions.
