[James Ryker 09] • The Vigilante

Sometimes, you can only keep the bad guys down for so long...

James Ryker thought he’d gotten the gangsters out of Blodstein. So he's surprised to hear of a new wave of murders in the Norwegian town. Then he discovers that an unidentified teenager has been found dead in Crete, and the description of the victim raises an alarm—could the boy be Henrik Svenson, who Ryker had once rescued in Blodstein?

In search of answers, Ryker heads for Athens—and meets the seductive but duplicitous Eleni. Soon the search begins for a known associate of the elusive Eastern European drug kingpin known only as Jesper. But just as it looks like he’s about to get a break in the case, Ryker finds himself in jail for murder.

Someone is setting him up—and after two Russian agents visit him in prison, things take a new and dangerous turn . . .
