The members of two dysfunctional criminal organizations operating on either side of the Mississippi River at St. Louis become trapped by fate between outcast FBI agents and a local militia group. Mix in a daring, yet largely involuntary, escape orchestrated by two competing Colombian drug cartels, an introverted accountant, his floozy girlfriend who has a serious drinking problem, one mysterious helicopter pilot, the leader of a large Baptist church, several unsuspecting federal prisoners, and a disabled former FBI agent and all hell breaks loose in the shadow of the Gateway Arch. Dr. Wollrab has authored the action novels Shadows in the Caribbean(drug smuggling), Match Penalty(terrorism) and Graveyard Train(voodoo curse). Coming soon are Murder at the Palais-Royal(espionage and murder), Perturbation Theory(sci-fi), Leaving Reality(youthful adventure), Russian Winter(espionage and murder) and Consanguinity(serial killer).
