Trial by Bullet

Capital punishment was never intended to be a do-it-yourself project.

A self-appointed judge, jury and executioner is eliminating Detroits accused criminals one by one. The assassin style killings target those who the killer deemed to be unjustly excused from their transgressions.

Homicide detective Ava Castillo and her partner Bennett Myers are tasked with solving the vigilante murder spree before the body count continues to grow. Unfortunately, the killer leaves few clues to follow so the detectives must dig deep to find a solution. Pressure continues to mount as an intriguing suspect develops during the investigation. Will Ava and Bennett pursue the correct trail or are they being outsmarted by a master culprit?

Trial by Bullet is a standalone novel. However, readers might enjoy first getting to know Ava and her fellow characters in her breakout novel, Slinging Bullets. In the first Ava Castillo novel, our detective is tasked with infiltrating the Detroit Wheels football organization in hopes of preventing a calamitous Super Bowl shooting. In Book 3, Faded Spotlight, Ava and Bennett investigate the sudden death of a rising superstar, singer Callie Alexo.
