McCrary’s Justice (book 6)
A Carlos McCrary, Private Investigator, Mystery Thriller

What would you do if your daughter was held by sex traffickers?

Nebraska farmer Wilbur Jenkins learns his missing daughter is a sex slave in Port City, Florida. He grabs the next flight to Port City and begs the cops to find her.

Is an untouchable diplomat behind the abduction?

The only clue is a phone number belonging to Antonio Crucero, a sinister diplomat from a Caribbean island paradise. The cops can’t penetrate Crucero’s diplomatic immunity, so Jenkins hires Carlos McCrary, a Private Eye who helps people when the cops can’t.

Crucero thumbs his nose at U.S. law, but diplomatic status can’t protect him from McCrary

McCrary uncovers a cesspool of sex trafficking and illegal drugs stretching from South Florida to the Caribbean, and the slimy Crucero is the kingpin of the operation.

Be prepared for a white-knuckle chase

In the final showdown Crucero circles back to McCrary’s own home, where Chuck must confront his worst nightmare. McCrary’s Justice slices like a machete through a treacherous jungle of new and fearsome enemies, as Chuck McCrary maneuvers inside the gangs and outside the law.

As I stepped inside, the alarm system beeped. The alarm would go off in forty-five seconds. I found the keypad beside the door. Enter code flashed on the screen. It’s incredible how many people use 1-2-3-4 as their alarm code. If that failed I had forty more seconds to try Crucero’s birth year, his birthday, then the apartment number.
If those failed, I would run like a scalded dog.

The Colt M1911A1 muzzle he leveled at me measured .45 inches in diameter. Pointed between my eyes, it looked black as a cavern and big as a cannon.
