Ben Stevens: Curtis Duncan, Bounty Hunter, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Curtis Duncan makes an epic journey through the nation's capital in pursuit of his most treacherous target yet, finding himself ensnared in a devious conspiracy that could lead to his demise.

In the dangerous underbelly of Washington D. C., Curtis Duncan, "America's Baddest Bounty Hunter," finds himself summoned to the nation's capital on a million-dollar bounty that will test his grit and resolve like never before. A notorious Haitian crime boss nicknamed "Johnny Boy" has executed an unthinkable escape from federal custody with the aid of his ruthless loyalists, the Gede Gang, a criminal organization with influence reaching far beyond the city limits.

Johnny Boy's singular obsession is to exact brutal revenge upon a U. S. Senator and the Attorney General, both of whom betrayed him for their own political ambition and financial gain. As the stakes rapidly escalate, Curtis enlists the aid of his tech-savvy younger cousin, Nevada Duncan, and his childhood best friend, Mya Wynn, one of the city's top investigative journalists, who has a dogged determination to uncover the truth.

Together, this trio dives deep into the seedy underbelly of the nation's capital, where power, corruption, and violence intertwine like a hand and glove. Each new lead they uncover unveils another layer of deceit, drawing them deeper into a web of conspiracies that ensnares some of the most influential figures in American politics.

As the hunt for Johnny Boy intensifies, Curtis finds himself framed for a murder, pushing him into a desperate race against time to clear his name and expose the truth before it's too late. With the ruthless Gede Gang closing in and the authorities on his trail, Curtis must take calculated risks as he navigates the treacherous universe of politics, crime, and betrayal.

The stakes reach a fever pitch when Mya becomes caught in the crosshairs, forcing Curtis to make an impossible choice---sacrifice his own life or risk losing the woman who has become more than just his best friend. In a heart-stopping climax amid the shadows of the capital, Curtis must confront his deepest fears and embrace the darkness within to emerge victorious against an enemy who has proven time and again that they will stop at nothing to maintain their stranglehold on power.
