The First Rule, Robert Crais

Frank ‘the tank’ Meyer died trying to defend his family during a home invasion robbery. The police and ATF agents go straight to Joe Pike. Frank and Joe worked together during Pike’s mercenary days and in the spirit of no man left behind Pike tasks himself to find and deal with the killers. His investigation points him at the eastern bloc mob culture of fraud and prostitution invading the bright lights of LA.

Agent Walsh of the ATF thinks Meyer’s clothing import business was a front for gun running. Pike, with help from PI partner Elvis Cole uncovers another reason the Meyers and their nanny were targeted and while Pike goes on a one-man wrecking spree to get the Serbian’s mob attention Cole covers his back.

Pike is zeroing in on the men who killed Frank Meyer and he promised Agent Walsh he’d stay his trigger finger but there’s an innocent life at stake and Pike’s going to have blood on his hands either way.
