On top of that, something important has gone missing. Not \"the valet misplaced my car keys\" important. More like \"end of the world as we know it\" important. And powerful people want it back.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow Ash is dodging bullets, bad memories, and the long shadow of his larger-than-life father while trying to figure out what Uncle Larry died protecting.
