Treachery

At the Scottsdale Saguara Inn, a man's scheduled encounter with Laura Jenkins, a high-priced call girl, is interrupted by his untimely murder. On her way to their appointment, Laura witnesses two hit men leaving his room. Two days later, a single gunman executes her as she tries to exit her car at home. She had only shared her experience with two people: Gina Rossi and Bob Wagner. Though he did not know Laura intimately, Bob had come to care about her. His quest to avenge her death and seek justice steeps him in the mob, treachery, and danger.
