Tin City by David Housewright
Mac McKenzie spends his time doing favours for friends. His latest effort seems simple enough: Find out what's been killing his pal's honeybees. But with only a minimal amount of digging, McKenzie soon turns up a hornet's nest of trouble. A vicious hood named Frank Crosetti suddenly and mysteriously disappears leaving behind a rape and a lifeless body. With only the faintest of trails to follow and an angry group of federal agents gunning for him, Mac dives under- ground, taking a stack of cash and a small arsenal with him. Before long he's deep in the forgotten corners of the Cities, sniffing for any sign of Crosetti, unable to rest until he gets results.
