The Gemini Hustle

Two undercover agents walk into a bar… … but it's no joke when assassin Ray Slater, who thinks he's just out to retire another bad guy, accidentally collides with Harry Finn's manhunt, burning Harry's cover (and the bar) in the process. Now, outnumbered and outgunned, Ray and Harry forge an uneasy alliance, leading them from the gritty depths of Ócala's slums straight into the heart of an interstellar crime syndicate, where a pair of psionically gifted women carry secrets that will alter their destinies. As the two operatives become entangled with these formidable women, the line between ally and adversary blurs, and survival becomes their paramount goal.
