Served Cold — James L'Etoile

When a cargo trailer packed with dead undocumented migrants is found abandoned in a freeway rest stop, Detective Nathan Parker soon discovers the dead wore identical clothing, were the same age, and weren't destined for the fields. Parker uncovers a diabolical connection between the migrants and a high-tech computer firm handling sensitive government information-information that could jeopardize the lives of thousands if it got into the wrong hands. Hands like the gang assassin who killed Parker's partner, who surfaces drawing them together for a final showdown. Parker promised his partner revenge as he bled out in Parker's arms-revenge is a dish best served cold.
