Book description
RCMP detective Jack Taggart has avenged the murders of his niece and
nephew, but the consequences linger. His deal with Damien, leader of
the Satans Wrath motorcycle gang, has put him in a bind and has
jeopardized an informant in the gang. Meanwhile, other members of the
gang, led by a mysterious figure known only as "The Boss",
have been working to eliminate Taggart by destroying the lives of
anyone with connections to him.
And if the bad guys aren't enough of an obstacle, there are problems
to be found on the force itself. Assistant Commisioner Isaac is
becoming more and more suspicious that Jack may have been responsible
for the death of a corrupt Crown prosecutor. With Jack's life and
career on the line, Above Ground is a tough and gritty
follow-up that will more than satisfy readers who were pulled into the
dark Vancouver underworld by Loose Ends, the first Jack
Taggart mystery.
Don Easton spent his career in the Royal Canadian Mounted Police as
an undercover operative who worked in foreign countries. He lives in
Victoria, British Columbia.
