TOKEN OF REMORSE

Nobody is Tougher than Streeter

Bounty hunter Streeter is a string of ex's... ex-linebacker, ex-accountant, ex-bouncer, and a four-time ex-husband ... who excels at exacting justice... with explosive results.

"Mike Hammer & Phillip Marlowe with a soupcon of Spenser for good measure" Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

The Waterbed King of Denver hires Streeter to track down his missing nephew, Richie Moats, who has robbed the owner of a string of massage parlors of his weekly take and has gone on the run. The chase takes Streeter to Mexico, where he has to find Richie before the furious tycoon's bone-breakers do. But that's only the beginning...as Streeter becomes entangled with Richie, and his stripper girlfriend, in a drug smuggling scam that stretches from the back alleys of Mexico to the streets of the mile-high city.

"Stone has a wining way with characters who are, well, bumblers...a welcome shot of humor for the hardboiled set," Booklist
