Bite The Bullet

Book excerpt: ONE MAN'S VENDETTA PUSHES HIM TO THE BRINK OF DISASTER. Ryan Malone became a Chicago cop to make a difference in the world, but his bright-eyed optimism has long since vanished. Police budgets have been slashed. Crooked politicians are lining their pockets. And the gangs are more powerful than ever. When Malone gets promoted to be the new leader of the Gang Task Force, he sees it as a real opportunity to do some good. But before he can even get started, a fatal accident turns his life upside down. Hellbent on justice, he incites a war with the Latin Kings, one of the deadliest gangs in the world. Malone's vendetta sends him into the grisly depths of the city's underworld, but the threat quickly turns out to be closer to home. Suddenly, Malone is no longer fighting to make a difference: he's now on his heels, fighting for his own life and the lives of the people he loves. He knows there's only one way out: through blood-filled justice - or in a body bag. Bite The Bullet is a journey into the crime-ridden streets of Chicago that you'll never forget.
