Big Guns - Robert J. Mendenhall

Langston. A sprawling, midwestern metropolis teeming with corporate greed and political corruption, coldblooded criminals and callous cops. But there are those who consider their vow to serve and protect a solemn oath.

Like Adam Pike. A former homicide detective for the Langston Police Department, Pike is now a private investigator with an ethical code that often puts his life at risk.

Homicide Detective Brad Elliott. Once Pike's partner with LPD, Elliott finds himself teaming with him in more than one case that tests their friendships and loyalties.

And Detective Sergeant Beth Dolan. A supervisor with LPD's Warrant Service Unit and Elliott's former wife. Dolan is good at her job, but self-doubt puts her team, and herself, at grave risk.

Seven stories of the men and women of Langston, risking their lives to protect the innocent.
