Jack Marsh left the LAPD after the corruption, racism and incompetence there became too much. He wanted to help people, not contribute to a broken system – but now, trying to keep his ex-wife and kid afloat, he’s forced to contribute to a far worse one instead. He’s a gun-for-hire, employed to protect the son of famous New York mafioso, Nick Corrello, in the midst of a series of strangely well-targeted attacks on his people. But protecting Tommy Corrello won’t be everything it seems. Not only is the 21-year-old more frank and flirtatious than anyone Jack has ever met, but he seems strangely confident that nothing bad is going to happen to him. Ducking and diving out of Jack’s protection almost like it’s a game, Tommy just can’t take the whole thing seriously – not even when Jack starts taking his advances more seriously. Can an ex-cop ever really commit to protecting the lawless? Is it wrong to blur the lines between guardian and lover? And what exactly is happening to Nick Corrello’s men? Only time will tell. Until then, the makers of the Corrello empire – and Jack’s livelihood – are truly on the rocks.**
