You would think after getting caught up in a high-school brawl, racing to keep a city from burning down, keeping a mob of teenagers from killing each other, and running a pseudo-illegal con job on a rich and powerful man, my fashionable ex-con PI could take a break and enjoy a little vacation.

Nope. Not a chance.

DeShawn Mills is only hours off his last assignment in Race to Judgment (Book 2, DeShawn Mills novellas). He hasn’t showered, changed clothes, or slept, and the attorney who hired him in RTJ is already knocking on the office door, intent on sending DeShawn back out into the world to find a ghost before a looming court hearing just days away.

Honor Thy Father, the third novella in the series, has DeShawn running all over the Midwest and east coast in a violent game of cat and mouse.

So what’s the case?

Someone is systematically killing members of a prominent family, but the youngest son and last remaining heir to the Delacroix fortune may still be alive. If so, it’s anyone’s guess where he might be. To complicate matters, a mysterious woman has come forward claiming to be the baseborn daughter of Jack Delacroix, and she wants the estate all to herself. The probate judge has ordered both would-be heirs to appear in court or forfeit their claims.

As the clock ticks down to the hearing, lawyers for the Delacroix Corporation hire DeShawn Mills to locate the youngest son and bring him back in time to take his place at the head of the table. But it seems no one, not even the attorneys, want DeShawn to succeed for fear of disrupting the status quo. Someone is selling out DeShawn, and with every move he makes DeShawn finds himself being dogged by assassins.
