Black Dawn: Davenport Series (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798896720867)

Black Dawn is a continuation of the davenport series, and picks up where black tide left off. In a race against time, tom spears is tracking his wife's kidnapper from washington state, to new york. Six days later, he finally catches up with them at the old red hook granary. A battle to save her ensues, and it's there tom begins to understand who's responsible when he confronts a professional killer from tom's dark and ominous past - a past that began with the loss of his family, and then later unfolded into a whole new and unimaginable life working for the new york mob. His name is bishop styles. Efficient and deadly, he is known as the duke of killers and the confrontation launches tom on a crusade for vengeance. He declares war on all involved, and a trail of dead bodies soon follows. This takes spears, alias shadow, to northern new york and the debar mountain range - a remote, inhospitable region, where the crime syndicate operates its illegal grow fields. And while there, he stumbles onto a whole new mystery - a tragedy that will tear at this very soul, and take him in an unexpected direction that will further diminish his chances of survival...

"Best book yet"

- Joseph A. Bouchard

Family, and their extended "family" like tom in this part 4. Can't wait for part 5!"

- Dayna Garner

"In the spirit of "breaking bad" and "dexter", tom spears is an antihero for the ages. Diffley does not disappoint in the conclusion to the cliff hanger at the end of "black tide", with a harrowing journey that ends with a number of unexpected twists."
