And now he's not only lying to his wife, but trying to avoid Mac as well. He and Mona have no idea where this will lead, but they both know it can't end well. But neither of them figure just how far Mac will go to get Forbes out of the way once he discovers his friend's betrayal. Nor what Forbes will do to protect his own. This item is printed on demand.
