Stiletto Assassin

Book excerpt: The crime caper, Stiletto Assassin, depicts South Brooklyn, NYC, where the ruthless Russian mob-boss, Mikhail Lysanovich, reigns supremely. Detective Callum Mackay, a compassionate veteran cop, is seeking justice while trying to unravel multiple murders-perpetrated in the same manner: mutilation via removal of the victims' tattoos. In his pursuit of the killer, Detective Mackay falls in love with Dr. Zoya Chernenko, a biracial beauty and Assistant Medical Examiner, whose father was brutally murdered in his home. Zoya is seeking vengeance as she infiltrates Mikhail Lysanovich's inner circle posing as his prized sexual object, hoping to gather information about her father's murder. As Zoya's and Mackay's paths cross, a game of cat and mouse, laced with scenes of vivid murders, ensues. What starts out as a business relationship between Mackay and Zoya, develops into passion, leading to an inevitable conclusion!
