This is a thoroughly entertaining contemporary police novel set in very rural Northern Florida. It hinges on a police stop where a black drug courier from New Jersey is stopped for a traffic violation, and shot for attempting to escape. County Sheriff, Billy Flynn, is absolved of any wrongdoing, but after his ex-lover and fellow officer, Sara Cross, arrives on the scene, several of the facts don't add up.
Later, it is revealed that there is $350,000 in drug money missing, and soon, Morgan, an old, yet violent, Black enforcer for the New Jersey drug gang arrives in the boonies, and tries to get the money back from whoever has taken it. Mikey Mike, the gang leader, sends down a couple of crazed brothers to help Morgan, but this action only leads to more chaos and bloodshed. And, a Haitian drug cartel is circling for a piece of the action.
The action is very fast-paced, and the characters are well written. I will very definitely read another novel by Wallace Stroby.
