If you want to stay alive, you better know the rules . . .
Natalia Mayne said, "What's the first rule?"
"Fear nothing," I said.
"You have any more?"
"Do unto them before they do unto you."
"Really?"
"And you don't owe the truth to people who lie."
"I've never met anybody like you."
"I've heard that before."
Mike Romeo is an ex-cage fighter living off the grid in L.A. Running from a dark guilt that dogs him, he's finally found a place where he can rest and even heal.
Then a church blows up. And with it all of Romeo's hopes to be left alone. When he stops to help an injured woman whose kids are missing, someone decides to put a target on his back.
But whoever wants him dead picked the wrong guy. Because Romeo has rules--and he's going to make them stick.
