Silencer by Campb Armstrong

What if the US Federal Witness Protection Program fails to protect its charges? What if, instead of offering a fresh start, all it offers is fear and deadly pursuit? Reuben Galindez was a star prosecution witness in the trial of big-time arms smuggler Angel Sanchez. When Galindez's bullet-ridden corpse is discovered floating down-river, former state prosecutor Amanda Scholes feels compelled to ask some awkward questions. Amanda had believed Galindez was safely 'vanished' by the Witness Protection Program, with a new identity and a new life. Did Galindez foolishly cast loose from those protecting him, or has someone infiltrated the high security surrounding the Program in order to exact a brutal form of justice? So begins Campbell Armstrong's most compelling and intelligent thriller yet, drawing the reader into an underground world of vengeance and corruption, where no friend, no stranger and no lover can be trusted.
