Murder and Mayhem

Dead women tell no tales.<br /> <br />Former cat burglar Rook Stevens stole many a priceless thing in the past, but he€s never been accused of taking a life€"until now. It was one thing to find a former associate inside Potter€s Field, his pop culture memorabilia shop, but quite another to stumble across her dead body.<br /> <br />Detective Dante Montoya thought he€d never see Rook Stevens again€"not after his former partner falsified evidence to entrap the jewelry thief and Stevens walked off scot-free. So when he tackled a fleeing murder suspect, Dante was shocked to discover the blood-covered man was none other than the thief he€d fought to put in prison and who still makes his blood sing.<br /> <br />Rook is determined to shake loose the murder charge against him, even if it means putting distance between him and the rugged Cuban-Mexican detective who brought him down. If one dead con artist wasn€t bad enough, others soon follow, and as the bodies pile up around Rook€s feet, he's forced to reach out to the last man he€d expect to believe in his innocence€"and the only man who€s ever gotten under Rook€s skin.
