About this book

Summary

Deputy Celia Mendonca has one shift remaining. Tomorrow, she joins the detective bureau. Tonight, she just has to survive. The graveyard shift starts fast: a desperate race to locate a missing elder before the freezing desert temperatures claim him. A volatile domestic call follows, leaving Celia staring down a violent parolee who promises retribution. But the real threat waits on a silent suburban street. Investigating suspicious activity at a vacant house, Celia stumbles into a massive Sinaloa cartel processing lab. With deadly chemicals in the air and armed traffickers blocking her exit, procedure goes out the window. Outnumbered and shielding a neighborhood unaware of the danger next door, Celia must rely on her combat training and instinct to hold the line. The streets save the worst for last. This is no routine patrol—it’s a fight for survival.
