Dixie Flynn's boss wants her to write a fluff story for Father's Day.

Dixie doesn't do fluff.

Investigating the origins of a cryptic classified ad, crime-beat journalist Dixie Flynn finds herself entering the seedy realm of a brutal Russian mobster. Before she knows it, Dixie's simple missing-father story has turned into a violent battle of wills as she tries to help a woman escape a life and death struggle with the mob. For Dixie, the pen is mightier than the sword, but it's going to take some handy work with a pistol if she wants this story to have a happy ending.

The riveting sequel to ANGEL WITH A BULLET, "a fast-paced combination of violence and sex" (Kirkus Reviews), DEVIL WITH A GUN leads Dixie Flynn to an incendiary confrontation with the most ruthless killers in San Francisco.

      In Grant’s chilling second Dixie Flynn mystery (after 2012’s Angel with a Bullet), San Francisco reporter Dixie Flynn sets out to write a Father’s Day feature that involves her in a missing person’s case. Twenty years earlier, when hairdresser Bailey Brown was five, her father, Joe, disappeared after coming into her bedroom one night with a menacing stranger. Now Bailey wants to find out what happened to Joe and bring some closure for herself and her younger sister, Roxanne, both of whom have suffered psychological damage as a result of their father’s absence. Dixie’s audacious digging into the past soon brings her the unwelcome attention of Russian mob boss Krasnyi Lebed. As the body count rises, Bailey and Roxanne realize that the emotional price of finding the answers they seek may be too high.
