EDGE OF JUSTICE, THE by Clinton McKinzie - BOOK - ADVANCE READING COPY

"Special Agent Antonio Burns - climber, cop, brother, son, risk-taker - knows the hunger that drives climbers up the faces of mountains. It's a hunger that has shaped his life and pushed his brother, Roberto, onto the wrong side of the law." "A climber by nature, a cop by trade, Anton has come to Laramie, Wyoming, to investigate a young woman's deadly plunge. But as he digs deeper into the case, Anton is certain he has found a murder...and a stunning connection to the trial of two men about to be executed for a crime they did not commit." But Anton is running out of time. As two lives hang in the balance, another woman is killed, and Anton believes the answers he seeks are hidden amid a dangerous group of climbers...and in the towering shadows of jagged peaks. Suddenly, Anton knows he has only one option. With a beautiful reporter sharing his investigation, he must make a harrowing ascent: up a forbidding mountainside - to bring a killer down from the deadliest kind of high.
