Any Woman He Wanted

Any Woman He Wanted

<b>With a new introduction by Ed Gorman</b><br /><br />Mike Ballard works homicide, demoted from lieutenant four years ago for accepting bribes. When District Attorney Tom Flynn, who was the one pursuing Ballard, tries to enlist him in his fight against corruption, Ballard wants nothing to do with it.<br /><br />The next day Flynn turns up dead — with the cops overeager to insist he committed suicide despite the bullet hole in the back of his head. Then there’s Lupe, pregnant by the son of one of the most influential men in town, who wants Ballard's help. And Naomi, who knows exactly what she wants.<br /><br />There's only so much a man can take, and when Ballard’s drinking friend is threatened and the cops don’t seem interested in giving him protection, Ballard decides to strike back against the new crime machine.
