Romeo's Way (a Mike Romeo Thriller)

There's a way that's right and a way that's deadly. Then there's Romeo's way.
 
"I don't want anybody bleeding to death, okay?" I said. "I think your problem is education. There's just no discipline anymore. You have to know there are consequences for bad behavior. Without that, society falls apart."
Baton Guy croaked, "I can't breathe."
"You just can't go around doing this sort of thing," I said. "It isn't right. Now, one of you is bleeding pretty badly and won't be riding a bike anytime soon. The other one still needs to learn, am I right?"
"Don't kill us," Knife Guy said.
 
Mike Romeo, the former cage fighter living low in L.A., doesn't look for trouble. He doesn't have to. It comes after him. So when he's hired by a California senatorial campaign to do undercover work, Romeo doesn't have any illusions. Especially when his duty takes him to San Francisco.
 
But as Romeo gets closer to solving the mystery of who is behind the hit job on an honorable man, things heat up in the City by the Bay — and between Mike and a beautiful political operative. Until a bullet nearly takes him out for good.Now all bets are off.
 
Because if there's one thing Romeo wants, it's justice. And he's going to get it–his way.
