Swyteck does not want “Falcon,” a tran- sient with an obsession with the Miami mayor’s daughter, as a client. He takes him on anyway as a favor, thinking he’ll plead the guy out. But . when Falcon is on the street again in a few 29S hours after posting bail from a ipo stash of money no one knew he . had, Jack finds himself on the wrong side of the powerful and vindictive mayor. And things can snowball fast in the Florida heat. TOP THRILLERWh Hours after Falcon’s release, the body of a brutally murdered woman is found in the trunk of the homeless man’s car. On the run, in an attempt to hijack Swyteck and his best friend Theo, Falcon kills one policeman and injures another. But what Jack doesn’t know is that other people are involved and are keeping dangerous secrets that they will stop at nothing to conceal. “Filled with hostages, hush money and Miamivice, it’s the relentless pacing that makes this one sizzle,” raves Kirkus. “When Darkness Falls” is available at bookstores and online retailers.
