Returning from Panama, and the savaging of Team Bravo, contract DEA operator, Captain Alexander Scott Richter, finds he returns six days late of his daughter’s funeral.
Returning from Panama, and the savaging of Team Bravo, contract DEA operator, Captain Alexander Scott Richter, finds he returns six days late of his daughter’s funeral. With no help from his ex-wife, her new husband, or the police, Richter embarks on a quest to uncover the murderer of the only thing he ever truly loved, his child.
As a part of his probe, Richter is confronted by the realization of his own inadequacies as a parent, a father. Delving deep into the underside of New Orleans, he encounters a youth under-culture more savvy, more enduring, than any soldier’s ability to survive a conflict.
With help from an unknown shadow collaborator, Richter recklessly stumbles from one disclosure to the next, haphazardly encroaching on the perpetrator of his daughter’s demise.

Others smoked and joked, much the same as enlisted men at the staging area on the Rio Chucunaque. Some cared, he guessed, some not. On a second notion, he decided his impromptu evaluation was not exclusive to law enforcement, or to the mercenaries he commanded in Panama. Most people cared about something. It was how they prioritized their feelings that showed the measure of their worth. To simply care was insufficient. You have to show people you love them. You have to be there.
