Practice to Deceive

Less than a day out of the Army and all Jim Greyson wanted was a draft beer and barbecue for dinner. But a conversation with the wrong girl sends Jim behind bars and in the sights of William Percy, a rogue FBI agent with a very special reason to talk with Jim.

Percy knows that the owner of the largest construction firm in Harts Bay, MD is laundering funds for a Russian mobster. But knowing is different than proving. So Percy wants Jim to return to his hometown and spy on an old family friend and the business the man built from scratch. A small favor, that's all Percy is asking for.

Harts Bay is a city that doesn't like a lot of questions. And when was the last time a small favor ended well for anybody?
