From the New York Times bestselling author of the Doc Ford series: Hawker wages a vigilante war on traffickers preying on illegal Mexican immigrants.
Disenchanted former Chicago cop James Hawker prefers justice his way: quick. He has the muscle, the experience, and the street smarts. Supported by a benefactor with the same motivations, Hawker also has the means to wash the scum off the streets in every city in the country.
As judge, jury, and executioner, America s most dangerous vigilante now finds himself in a squalid dive bar on the Mexican side of the Rio Grande. Blind drunk and stinking of mescal, he begs a stranger to help him cross the border. Next thing Hawker knows, he s chained up in the back of a truck with other desperate and defenseless vagrants men and women, both for a hundred-mile trip north to Houston. Hawker has been captured by human traffickers. And that s exactly what he wants.
Spearheaded by a millionaire Texas rancher, the highly organized slavery ring is an insidious business profiting from Mexican labor: Sell off the vulnerable immigrants as field hands, house servants, and prostitutes. To attack the Houston slavers, Hawker must infiltrate them. But in doing so, he s placed himself right in the line of fire.
Houston Attack is the 5th book in the Hawker series, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order."
