The limits of justice

Description

For ex-reporter Benjamin Justice life has hit rock bottom — HIV positive, no job, no hope, no future. Then a young woman comes to his door with a handsome job offer — to ghostwrite a payback book. Someone has written a bio attacking her father, the late Rod Preston, a onetime Hollywood hunk. Rod was not all he seemed on the big screen — or so says the sleazy bio. The actor is linked to a shadowy world of powerful men, sinister perversion, and blood-chilling crimes so shocking, they give Justice a reason to fight the good fight once again. But no sooner has Justice cashed his advance check than Rod's loyal daughter unexpectedly turns up dead in her bedroom, a needle in her arm. The authorities rule her death a suicide, but Justice knows there's more to the story. Armed only with rumor and circumstantial evidence, Justice goes looking for the truth and discovers that the secrets he seeks lie hidden behind a web of deadly games and unspeakable depravity. To uncover them Justice may have to risk not just his life but his soul....
