About the Book

A calypso singer fresh off a gig walks home in a downpour, when shots tear through his head like steel rain. A hooker out on the street in the same miserable weather doesn’t know her final trick will be her last. What brings these two sad ends together…the same gun.

If they don’t find their man soon, the sickness will turn deadly again…and again…and again…
