It's a deadly stand-off...a bloody powder-keg ready to explode into a full-scale massacre. The cornered, desperate prisoners have one demand: they want private eye Peter Bragg to clear the ringleader's teenage brother of a murder charge in a small, northern California town. It's a high-stakes case with a brutal ticking clock, and it pits Bragg against cops, neo-Nazis and powerful enemies who would like to see him, the convicts, and the hostages all go down in a hail of flames and gunfire that would keep their secrets from ever being revealed. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Bragg is authentic, gripping, gritty...what Lynch sells is well-written escape...slam-bang mystery that's fun to read\" San Francisco Examiner \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"This is a first-rate series,\" 101 Knights: A Survey of American Detective Fiction \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"The books are damn good, featuring a hard but believable hero,\" The Thrilling Detective \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e(Originally published under the title \"San Quentin\")","brand":"Brash Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47166175215856,"sku":"2940150797185","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940150797185_p0.jpg?v=1763753945","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940150797185","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
