A hard-boiled private detective novel about a rape case undone by vanished evidence and the question nobody can answer: who wanted the accused walking free. Streetwise PI noir with courtroom fallout and escalating menace.
The DNA evidence should've made the rape a slam dunk case.
But after the evidence disappeared from a police locker, the man accused of brutally raping a popular actor's daughter walked free. Hired by the actor, private detective Dan Reno's job seemed simple enough: discover who took the DNA, and why. Problem is, from the beginning of the investigation, neither Reno, the South Lake Tahoe police, nor anyone else have any idea what the motivation could be to see ghetto thug Duante Tucker get away with the crime. Not even Reno's best friend, fellow investigator Cody Gibbons, has a clue.
When Reno and Gibbons tail Tucker, they learn the rapist is linked to various criminals and even a deserter from the U.S. Marine Corps. But they still can't tell who'd want him set free, and for what reason?
Things get murkier when Tucker visits a restaurant whose owners are suspected terrorists. Then Cody's ex-boss, a San Jose police captain, is found to be dallying with Tucker's sister. The clues continue to build until Reno and Cody find themselves targeted for death. That tells Reno he's getting close, so he and Gibbons put the pedal to the metal. The forces of evil are running out of time, and the action reaches a boiling point before an explosive conclusion that reveals a plot and motivations that Reno never imagined.
Hard Prejudice is book six in the Dan Reno Novel Series, a mystery for fans of Michael Connelly and Robert Crais.
