The Ghost

Marc Olden's crime novels are "as brutally effective as a .44 Magnum and just as powerful" ("Flint Journal, " MI). Now Olden takes the safety off, pointing a New York City cop down a bottomless barrel of murder, blackmail, drugs, and betrayal.

Detective Rosalind "Ross" Magellan lives for the adrenaline rush of undercover work, and she's riding her ultimate high -- seting up a dope-peddling judge. Working after-hours, often without badge or gun, her only backup is her "ghost" -- the detective whose sole responsibility is to stay hidden until intervention becomes vital. But Ross is also haunted, and hunted, by a different ghost -- a stalker just as artfully cunning as herself. Now with all eyes on her every move, she's about to enter a labyrinth of deadly deception where her first false step will be her last.
