Assassin Fish

Eric Chistiansen—not his real name—has been looking for sanctuary for a long time. He finally thinks hes found a crime syndicate that might watch his back while he tries to disentangle himself from his highly lucrative, highly illegal job as a killer for hire, albeit a picky one. Hes ready to hang up his guns for some peace.

Brady Carnegie came to this little slice of desert between Meth and Hell because he wanted to help bring crime down. Hes deeply disappointed to find that his new boss and others in the department are crooked. But Brady has stumbled onto the key to ending the corruption plaguing the stretch of desert hes coming to love, if he can stay alive long enough to use it.

Brady finds unexpected allies in the same unlikely group thats sheltering Eric and starts to realize that the good guys may not wear badges, and the bad guys who do have enough to lose to put his new friends at risk too. Bradys always been a solid law and order man, but he finds himself shifting allegiances like the desert sands shift beneath his feet.

As Eric grows more protective of the earnest deputy, it becomes clear that a true warrior never gets to hang up his guns, and redemption doesnt come without a price. Can a hidden nest of vigilantes bring justice to their barren land while the cop and the hitman find comfort in each others arms? Or is the cost of redemption only measured in blood?
