No Escape: A Kenny Marquette Mystery - Vol 3

Kenny Maquette's heavy drinking caused him to lose his job as a top detective with the Ashford Police Department in California, He was quickly hired as a uniformed security officer with Grafton-Keating, a local defense plant. On his third midnight shift, he finds an open door and a broken lock at the plant's "think tank." He goes inside unarmed to investigate and is shot and seriously wounded. While convalescing, he joins forces with a California private investigator, and together they find the kidnapped daughter of a local defense attorney. Six months later, Kenny relocated in the big apple where he was thrust into an investigation to find the man who murdered a socialite, a woman who led a crusade against the vicious men who breed dogs to fight to their death. With two successful investigations behind him, Kenny got his New York private investigator's license. From a window-seat in a Queens coffee shop he saw three men abduct two teenage girls - one a judge's granddaughter. He intervened but was unable to save the girls or prevent a uniformed police officer from being guned down. As a key witness to the abduction, he worked tirelessly to help NYPD Major Case Squad Detective Brenda Farrell recover the girls and bring the abductors to justice.
