Wild Card

From the bestselling mystery series Lee Child called “Top class suspense ... one of my favorite series,” comes a novel of murder, mobsters and a cop who won't say quit. It’s 1979, and Atlantic City is being torn down, replaced by a glitzy casino and all the crime that goes with it. Cops on the take, mobsters, a sadistic serial killer, and more con men than you can shake a stick at define the new Atlantic City. Only one man can clean up the little city by the shore, Detective Tony Valentine. James Swain is the author of fourteen bestselling novels, and is the winner of the Prix Calibre .38 for Best American Crime Fiction.
