Smoke

Thomas Smoke is a killer.

An uncompromising predator.

Considered boy-next-door handsome by those who know him-and those who want to, he is a man with a ready smile, who loves to kiss, and who does it often and well.

Hunting the trails of Central Park's densest woodland and within the chrome-plated grunge of New York City, he is as well suited to its opulent penthouses, tony rooftop bars, and socialite bedsheets as he is to the bone-numbing grottos and bloody subterranean passages hundreds of feet below the Manhattan grid.

But he isn't the only killer in the city. And when their paths cross, the race for his life begins. Not only to stay alive but to determine his own identity and whether he is the good guy or the bad.

From the author who penned the polarizing thriller "Roxelana and Suleyman" and the unprecedented "America: Tuwaqachi" which catapults the reader through 18,000 years of turbulent adventure, comes a thriller enriched by his years killing it on the streets of New York, New York.

Welcome to a life and a city of unparalleled wealth, indulgence, and deception.
