Cajun Justice

Brought to you by Penguin.

From the world's bestselling thriller writer comes an international thriller going from the Bayou in Louisiana to Tokyo, Japan as justice is served.

Cain Lemaire, a Secret Service agent from New Orleans, has the dream job he’s always wanted – until a single night results in a scandal that loses him his post.

Needing a new direction, Cain follows his sister to Japan and takes a job in Tokyo as head of security for the CEO of a top company. But what he thought was a simple security assignment unravels into a tangled web of corruption, greed and extortion.

Without the wealth of resources he had with the Secret Service, Cain will have to rely on his instincts and training as he races to find justice the way only a born and raised Cajun can.
