The Ace of Spades: Gideon: The Final Chapter (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798245463919)

The Ace of Spades
Book 2 of 2

A condemned man sits in a straitjacket, forty-eight hours from the electric chair, while the only person who can save him is racing against time, smoke, and betrayal.

Vincent Gideon has spent months living as a fugitive, chasing the truth behind the "Ace of Spades" murder that shattered Black Rock Cove. Now the clock is brutal: one wrong hour and his son, Billy Bob, dies for a crime he didn't commit. The trail points to a beautiful predator with a dozen names and one specialty-vanishing just before the law arrives.
Josh Norris, Gideon's loyal right hand, goes undercover and walks into a sawmill that feels less like a workplace and more like a grave. Trap doors. A drugged bottle. Two girls meant to drown in darkness and be "accidentally" destroyed on railroad tracks. And at the center of it all: an inheritance worth ten million dollars, a drunken heir who can be controlled, and a mastermind who will burn the world before she lets the truth survive.

As bodies disappear and witnesses are silenced, Gideon realizes arresting the killer won't be enough. He needs the one living piece of proof the courts can't ignore: a deaf-mute young man forced to carry a corpse through winter streets-then abducted before he could speak the truth.

What follows is a final, desperate run through fog-choked woods, a priest who becomes an unlikely ally, a chateau turned to an inferno, and a last-minute dash back to the prison with justice hanging by a single, trembling thread.
Because tomorrow at noon, the law will kill an innocent man... unless Gideon can deliver the truth tonight.
