Follow Dante Ryan, former hit man and reluctant restauranteur, as he tracks a crooked financier who fled with millions in mob money to a lonely house on a Dominican hill.
Kevin Cochrane thought it was a good idea to steal millions from his investors. His Mob clients disagreed and he’s been on the run for years. Now he’s been spotted in the Dominican port city of Puerto Plata. And that’s where former hit man Dante Ryan lands one day in December, at a resort called Serenidad.
But Ryan’s not there for the sun, the sand or the lovely concierge. He’s trying to find Cochrane before he gets spooked and takes off again. But why is Ryan on his trail if he has given up killing? And how will he get around a crooked cop, two well-connected local brothers named Javi and Davi, and another hired killer whose skills and reputation rival his own?
