Kismet

After my wife's death, I needed action, something to avoid the trip down a bottle of Scotch. So, when Lexie Reardon came along and wanted me to locate her missing brother in the City of Angels, I was ready. What's that old cliché? 'Be careful what you wish for.' Pretty soon I knew the answer to the question, 'what do dirty cops, the mob and a Mexican drug cartel all have in common?' A guy they wanted dead. Me. But I'd also rediscovered my first love. After one night with her, it wasn't going to be me who would die.
