Once again, Alex Caine risks it all.
In his latest book, Alex Caine rubs shoulders with the members of a Hong
Kong triad who are deeply involved in the drug trade and a group of
Ottawa skinheads that plans to detonate a bomb in the heart of the
nation's capital. Caine is blindsided when he learns that his girlfriend
Shannon has been doing the same undercover work as him. When her cover
is blown by members of the Russian mafia, Shannon is murdered by the
mysterious Henry, who ends up in Caine's crosshairs. The author also
delves into the abuses committed on Canada's Native communities, as
shown by recent police scandals in Saskatoon. With the same intensity,
he shines a light on the harassment of female officers in the RCMP. As
he writes the closing chapters of his book, Caine gets a call from his
former employers, who appoint him to a team of organized crime experts.
Just a few days before the murderous attacks at Charlie Hebdo, Alex
and his colleagues are called upon to prevent terrorist cells from
activating on Canadian soil. The seasoned group of law enforcement
veterans is given a list of eighteen suspects who must be neutralized at
all costs. Befriend and Betray II gives readers an insider's view of
an elusive figure who knows how to walk the thin line between the good
guys and the bad guys--between the missions he must carry out and the
characters he must become.
