Hard Stop (A Sam Aquillo Long Island Mystery) - Softcover
After finally achieving some measure of peace and contentment on the tip of Oak Point, overlooking the Little Peconic Bay, Sam is yet again an accidental player in other people's dramas. It takes him into the world of private security goons, predatory financiers and lifestyles of young hedonists, some brave, some beautiful, all a bit lost. But this time there's some added incentive. An opportunity Sam thought he'd never see again, the chance to get a bit of his old life back. The only piece of it that he might actually want. With lawyer Jackie Swaitkowski and cop friend Joe Sullivan reluctantly in tow, and the beautiful Amanda Anselma, fisherman Paul Hodges and mutt Eddie Van Halen eager to lend a hand, Sam is back on the quest.This time with a few ambitions of his own, which lead him into something all his battles in the ring and corporate boardroom could never have prepared him for.

The New York Times 'In his mid-fifties now - and this is his fourth appearance in a Sam Acquillo Hamptons Mystery - Sam is as cynical, funny and decent as ever.' National Public Radio
