Old ways
and new clash in head-on confrontation When journeyman hit
man Ray Dylan agrees to look in on Sami Bloom, former
mistress of a deceased Canadian crime financier, he
realizes he must keep his profession a secret. What he
doesn't realize is how difficult that is now he has
fallen for this warm-hearted beauty. While he struggles
with the idea of confiding to her about his secret
past, Dylan learns that Sami Bloom has some secrets of
her own - and her secrets reach into the upper
echelons of the very organization he works for. Add to that a
greedy young criminal, who along with his bodyguard,
poses a threat to Sami's life, and secerts, Dylan
knows it's time for bullets to fly. In Friend of a Friend, Cotton paints a stark
unapologetic portrait of modern American crime, both
at its ruthless struggling-for-power street level, and
at its more discreet, tight-lipped, yet equally deadly
seats of authority.
--- Cotton has a unique way of weaving the
reader's senses into the story. Known for fast-paced
narrative and wry dark humor, Cotton takes inspiration
for his stories from TV news and headlines. He creates
a raw and colorful, almost desperate atmosphere around
modern American culture, yet at some point,
unexpectedly, leaves the reader with cause for hope.
