Sinopsis

KILL THEM BACK by Hock Hochheim

It's Texas in the 1980s and 90s, and his world is full of corrupt police, bad judges, seedy bail bondsmen, conniving complicit lawyers, the Cowboy Mafia, violent career criminals, cartels, desperate drug addicts, rapists, weaselly thieves and frightened snitches. He's a Special Agent, a State Criminal Intelligence Investigator, and he smells them out, stomps on them, puts them away or sometimes? He has to kill them. When they try to kill him? He kills them back.

But the saga begins in the 1980s, back when Jack was a "lone wolf," West Forge city Texas detective. In Be Bad Now, he takes on the bastardized brotherhood of the Northeastern New York City Mafia and Cowboy Mafia.

In the 80's a recession stampedes Texas. The oil industry dries up, laying high rollers low and sending the entire state of Texas into a tornado-like down spin. Northern mobsters invade these cracks in the Lone Star State. Their schemes: corruption, loan sharking, gambling, extortion, drug and human trafficking, and murder for hire - all backed with strong arms swinging bats, psychos pointing guns, torture, violence and death.

The city of West Forge, a stone's throw from Houston, is Sgt. Jumpin' Jack Kellog's town. And when organized crime seeps in, Kellog's brand of justice knows no bounds. He tracks, fights, kicks and shoots his way through conspiracies, threats, ambushes and showdowns. Pushed to near-madness by angst with informants inside his agency and lurking everywhere, Jack tackles the thugs, bosses, lawyers, politicians and businessmen on the mob payroll, in a battle that takes him from the swamps of Louisiana, to the ghettos of Houston, to casinos in Vegas and even through the Halls of Congress in Washington D.C. Can Kellog beat the Yankee Mafia? Beat the Cowboy Mafia? Their Crime Confederation?
