For some, loyalty is a game played with loaded dice.
In Miami's deceptive calm, private investigator Matt Gage is pulled into a case that cuts to the core of the city's athletic empire. Hired by sports agent Jimmy Lawson, Gage is tasked with infiltrating the shadowy Sunshine Sports Collective and unraveling a dark conspiracy that spans the recesses of Miami's underbelly to the pulsing heart of its illustrious arenas. As an ex-CIA operative, Gage is familiar with danger. But the Collective is a new breed of enemy. Behind the glamorous facade of endorsements and celebrity athletes lies the prospect of grim machinations. When a shocking act of violence turns the case personal, Gage finds himself alone in the Magic City, a place as dangerous as any he survived in his years as a spy. With no one to trust and nothing as it seems, Gage learns that death is only one bullet away. Prepare for a heart-racing thriller with Dale M. Nelson's second addition to The Gage Files. This electrifying sequel is a high-octane journey that rivals the twists and turns of Lee Child's Jack Reacher, the strategic cunning of Robert Ludlum's Jason Bourne, and the complex plots of David Baldacci.
