Tin Badges: A Novel

From the #1Â New York TimesÂ bestselling author ofÂ SleepersÂ andÂ The Wolf, hailed as â€œsimply the bestâ€ (Steve Berry) and â€œone of the most intriguing writers aroundâ€ (Newsweek). . . .
Â
A top NYPD detective is pulled out of retirement to take down a notorious drug dealer. But will he risk the only family heâ€™s ever had to crack the case?

As one of the NYPDâ€™s most trusted â€œtin badgesâ€â€”retired detectives brought in to solve cases that are beyond the reach of the everyday forceâ€”Tank Rizzo has faced off against some of the cityâ€™s toughest criminals without breaking a sweat. To tackle a case involving a dangerous kingpin known as Gonzo, Tank turns to his best friend and ex-partner, Pearl; a former mobster living out a seemingly quiet retirement as the owner of Tankâ€™s favorite Italian restaurant; and a team of expert misfits he would trust with his life. But Gonzo will stop at nothing to defend the empire he's built, and won't hesitate to make it personal.

Then Tank gets a call telling him that his brother and sister-in-law, estranged from him for many years, have been killed in a horrific car accident. Tank is the only family left for his orphaned teenage nephew, Chris, although he knows his lifestyle is ill-suited to win him father of the year.

Chris moves in with Tank, and the two circle each other warily. Itâ€™s only when Chris reveals an interest in true crime and a genius-level skill with computers that they begin to bond. Chrisâ€™s skills may be exactly what Tankâ€™s team needs to take Gonzo downâ€”but getting him involved could put his life at risk.

Advance praise for Tin Badges

â€œCarcaterraÂ capably combines his trademark adrenaline-fueled action with the emotion involved in Tank taking on a parental roleÂ for a sometimes surly teen.Â All this needs, after a cliff-hanger close,Â is a sequel, and, fortunately, one is promised.â€ â€”Booklist

â€œAnother gem from a writer who has earned his spot at the top echelon of suspenseÂ masters . . . Everything here leaps from the page, never stinting on the harsh reality, delivering a spicy, smart, and entertaining adventure.â€â€”Steve Berry, New York Times bestselling author of the Cotton Malone series
