Straw Man

by David Kettlehake

"Rolland Schmidt was a good man at heart, but even good people make mistakes. Some mistakes are gone and forgotten in an instant, while others stick with you for life - no matter how short that life may be." When Marcus Schmidt discovers his estranged brother is missing he quickly returns to the Midwest, determined to find him. What he uncovers instead is a side of Rolland that he never knew, someone deeply involved in a Mexican drug war that threatens to explode into a blood bath across the Yucatan Peninsula. Now Marcus must not only find Rolland but stop the impending carnage as well. Searching for answers he travels to Mexico and the only true family he has. But the war is much closer to him than he suspects, and he quickly finds that no one is above suspicion - not even the family he loves. From California to the Midwest to the Mayan ruins of Chich n Itz , Marcus quickly learns that he must watch his back...or he'll be the next victim in Mexico's brutal drug war. With its intense action, romance, and plot twists, Straw Man is guaranteed to keep you riveted to the surprising end.
