The Art of Dash

By Parker Rimes

Chicago journalist Zach Bones thought putting a drug lord behind bars was the end of the story. He was dead wrong.

For Chicago Post crime reporter Zach Bones, chasing the truth is a religion-and he's never been afraid to bleed for it. But when he is pulled into a blacked-out Chrysler and brought face-to-face with Frankie Ritchie, a untouchable South Side drug lord, the rules of the game change overnight.

Ritchie hands Zach an anonymous leak designed to destroy a rival dealer: raw, explosive photographic evidence. But in the underworld, free tips come with lethal price tags. Before Zach can parse the truth from the setup, the rival ends up dead in a jailhouse hit-and Zach finds himself framed as the primary co-conspirator in a high-stakes murder investigation.

Trapped between a persistent detective, a cartel vacuum, and a vicious kingpin who now owns his silence, Zach has only one wild card left: Keera, his gifted girlfriend whose unsettling but accurate psychic visions offer them a razor-thin edge. But when Ritchie's enforcers close in on her to keep Zach in line, the hunt becomes personal.

Amazon Customer reactions: "Oh, the wit and the sarcasm (Great banter between Bones and Dash, and Bones and Uncle.) The plot was nicely built too - a little crime, a little love, a little backstabbing, a little cat and mouse - and was even capped with a little supernatural action. Everything wrapped up swimmingly, just the way I like an ending." "Great read and kept me hooked right to the end."
