Death Con Seduction

When Marlon Newberry is gunned down outside a the apartment house where he has attended a party, the case reeks of something more sinister than a street hit. Detectives Abe Gold and Barbara Cortez follow the trail, but it's private investigator Sam Sharpe who's hired to uncover the truth. What Sharpe finds is a shadow world of cons and corruption-fake antiques sold for fortunes, fortune-tellers bleeding the wealthy dry, and real estate scams designed to ruin lives. At the center is Angie Evison, a breathtaking femme fatale whose beauty hides a ruthless mind. Her crew doesn't just cheat marks-they silence them. Meanwhile, Judah Hammer's criminal empire is threatened from within. Lou Fedorov, one of his most trusted men, has fallen under Angie's spell-caught between loyalty to his boss and obsession with the woman who may have ordered Marlon's death. As Sharpe digs deeper, his own dark past resurfaces, putting a target on his back. The cons are deadly, the betrayals cut deep, and in this game, losing means more than money-it means your life. Perfect for fans of gritty noir and hard-edged crime thrillers.
