This book continues Anna & Jack’s relationship. They’re engaged, & ready to combine their lives. On the night they actually get engaged, a brothel bust goes terribly wrong. Two people get killed, & we’re introduced to MS-13, the Salvadoran street gang. Their motto is rape, torture, kill (or something along those lines).

Jody – the sister of Anna (who is the main character in this series – which I didn’t even know was a series) is accused of killing him, […]
