Black Yéʼii

"On one side, unconditional familial love supported by the camaraderie of law enforcement. On the other? Guns, drugs, and hatred. Black Ye'ii stages an epic battle between good and evil." -Cam Torrens, award-winning author of the Tyler Zahn thriller series

The police fabricated a story about the night four members of MS-13 died in a tiny home on a quiet city street almost two years previous. George Tokay and his friends were not supposed to share the secret about what really happened that night. No one was to know the truth. But someone talked, and now MS-13, ruthless and wanting revenge, is back in town, and people are dying.

Can Detectives Graff, O'Connor, and Eiselmann find the killers and put a stop to the killing before anyone else dies?
