When Detective Isaac Bell’s mentor is shot, the turn-of-the-century investigator traces the strike from a booze-smuggling operation back again to a group of international saboteurs within this #1 New York Times-bestselling series.

It is 1920, and both Prohibition and bootlegging are completely swing. When Isaac Bell’s boss and lifelong friend Joseph Truck Dorn is shot and almost wiped out while leading the high-speed run after of a rum-running vessel, Bell swears to him that he will hunt down the men responsible. But Bell doesn’t know very well what he is getting into. When a witness to Truck Dorn’s shooting is usually executed within a ruthlessly efficient manner invented from the Russian key police, it turns into clear these are no regular criminals.
