The first in an action-packed, humor-filled mystery/thriller series perfect for fans of Lee Child's Jack Reacher
"A smart, noirish mystery loaded with clever dialogue and vivid characters. The Crush series is as good as it gets."
-- Kirkus (starred review)
When Zerbe, the honorary brother (and roommate) of LA's toughest bodyguard/bouncer, Crush, is kidnapped, Crush springs into action to save him. Unraveling the mystery takes him to Zerbe's estranged billionaire father, who's obsessed with building California's long-promised bullet train, as well as to Pasadena's famed Rose Parade along Colorado Boulevard. This third installment in the Crush series (both of which were Kirkus Best Mysteries of the Year) is full of action, humor, and mystery.
