Publisher's summary

Detective James Wolf earned the nickname Lone Wolf from his inability to work with a partner. He's a hard cop who doesn't mind bending the rules to the breaking point to make a case, which is why Internal Affairs is digging in his backyard, looking for buried bones. People are starting to wonder which side of the law the Lone Wolf really hunts for. With his career hanging by a thread, he needs a major show of good faith to stay employed and out of prison. That's when he gets the call.

From the moment he arrives at the crime scene, Detective Wolf knows he's in over his head. He's a narcotics detective called in to consult on a homicide, but this is no ordinary homicide - a priest was butchered in his own church, the body left behind with a promise of more to follow.

The only lead is the killer's calling card: a black lotus flower. Detective Wolf now has the opportunity to wipe his service record clean, in exchange for tracking and stopping the Black Lotus before the next victim is claimed.

Accepting this assignment was Wolf's attempt to get Internal Affairs off his back. But when his hunt for the Black Lotus leads him to a cold case from his past, it becomes personal.

Great Book

I loved this book. I only had a few problems. Some of the deaths bothered me: the bodyguards, the husband, the dogs & definitely the guy who ultimately & erroneously got the blame for the murders. Other than that I loved it.

Entertaining!

This book was a pretty good. The story line kept me interested and wanting more. The voices of the characters, however, fell short because they weren't consistent throughout. Can't wait to listen to book 2.

"Hooked" Me From the Beginning

Absolutely LOVED everything about this story. Narration was on point and just enough suspense to keep you wanting more. It was so good I was hoping for more, much more🤣I know I'm a bit late to the party, but I will moving on to the 2nd part right after I'm done w/ this review.
I doubt you'll be disappointed in this one!

Great Read!!!

I loved this. Loved it! I even loved Cary Hite this time. The man has improved by leaps and bounds.
I don’t know if the length of the book was an asset or liability because I wished the story had more time but it was complete and entertaining. Bravo! Hopefully there is a second book.

Movie?

Started out slow to me but once it picked up I couldn't put it down. Took some getting used to the narrator but great overall. The storyline was excellent. I wonder what kind of movie this would make.

Perfection

The story is really good.
A conflicted cop, a vigilante and some bad people.
The narration was amazing and really gave life to the story.
Be aware of the triggers on the subjects of violence and child abuse.
