In Plain Sight — Mike Knowles

“Wilson is worthy to stand next to Loren Estleman's Peter Macklin and Donald Westlake's Parker” (Publishers Weekly).
 
Wilson has tried to put his criminal past behind him -- but now a random car accident has interfered with his plans and pushed him back in the crosshairs. Dirty cops have gotten their hooks in him and want to use him as bait, telling him the only way to stay out of cuffs is to put someone worse in them.
 
Knowing that justice isn't blind in the city, Wilson picks a fight with the Russian mob to lure both the corrupt cops and brutal robbers into a trap, in a desperate attempt to scavenge his freedom again . . .
 
“A very good series.” -- Booklist
