<DIV><B>Edgar Award Finalist: In El Salvador, a young American faces his troubled past&mdash;and a dangerous present.</B></DIV><DIV><BR /> Jude McManus has landed on his feet. Following time in the army, he scored work as an &ldquo;executive protection specialist&rdquo; in El Salvador, where he safeguards a hydrologist for good money and gets to surf during his downtime. But this slice of paradise comes with post-civil-war dangers, and distance won&rsquo;t erase his cruel memories of Chicago. Ten years earlier, his cop father was outed as part of the Laugh Masters, a group of police officers investigated for robbing and brutally beating drug dealers. In the wake of the scandal, the family fell apart, and his father died under suspicious circumstances.</DIV><DIV>&#160;</DIV><DIV>When McManus gets a call from Bill Malvasio&mdash;one of his dad&rsquo;s closest friends and an escaped member of the Laugh Masters, now living in El Salvador&mdash;the past comes knocking in a big way. Malvasio opens up about what really happened, and seeks help for another member of McManus&rsquo;s father&rsquo;s old crew. Is the disgraced ex-cop being straight with McManus? Hidden corruption abounds, and it will take all of McManus&rsquo;s wits to come away with the truth&mdash;and his life&mdash;intact.</DIV>
