Dixie Flynn’s boss wants her to write a fluff story for Father’s Day.
Dixie doesn’t do fluff.
Investigating the origins of a cryptic classified ad, crime-beat journalist Dixie Flynn finds herself entering the seedy realm of a brutal Russian mobster. Before she knows it, Dixie’s simple missing-father story has turned into a violent battle of wills as she tries to help a woman escape a life and death struggle with the mob. For Dixie, the pen is mightier than the sword, but it’s going to take some handy work with a pistol if she wants this story to have a happy ending.
The riveting sequel to ANGEL WITH A BULLET, “a fast-paced combination of violence and sex” (Kirkus Reviews), DEVIL WITH A GUN leads Dixie Flynn to an incendiary confrontation with the most ruthless killers in San Francisco.

At its heart, it is a thriller, but it’s also a story about the lengths people will go to get exactly what they want, regardless of who gets in the way. The characters are deeply developed to the extent that you’ll know them inside out by the end of the book. The plot is unique, tightly woven in a narrative that flicks seamlessly between the present and the past. The tension builds slowly, gradually tightening its grip on you, leaving you unable to put it down until the end, each chapter leaving you wanting to read just a little bit more. This is not a fast-paced story, but it does pick up the pace gradually, drawing you into the main character’s web of lies and deceit. A thoroughly enjoyable story, and highly recommended to anyone who loves a good thriller with the ability to hold their attention from start to finish.
