Choke Point

by James C. Mitchell

Overview

When an unidentified man is murdered in Tucson, reporter April Lennox asks private investigator Brinker to help her uncover the mystery man's story. Brinker turns her down. April vanishes into Mexico, alone.

Brinker follows April's trail into a dangerous borderland of greed and corruption, pain and power, and a new attachment to a woman who seems ready to risk anything to be with him.

Like the critically acclaimed, Shamus Award-nominated LOVERS CROSSING, the second Brinker novel promises fast-moving suspense, intriguing characters, and a timely, unsparing view of the border underworld.

About the Author

JAMES C. MITCHELL's first two Brinker novels were nominated for Shamus Awards by the Private Eye Writers of America. The first in the series, LOVERS CROSSING, was called "as satisfying as the debuts of such classic series heroes as Parker's Spenser and Grafton's Kinsey Millhone."

Mitchell has worked as a broadcast journalist, a prosecutor, and most recently a journalism professor at the University of Arizona. He lives in Tucson.

Editorial Reviews

"The second Brinker case — Lovers Crossing was his deservedly praised debut — is equal parts classic PI novel, social critique, and psychological drama. Brinker... brings down the bad guys in classic tough-guy fashion with a brilliantly executed plan. Brinker is the real deal, folks, and he'll be around for a long, long time." Wes Lukowsky, Booklist, Oct. 1, 2004.
