Crime Interrupted

Buck Taylor just hasn't been the same since his wife died. After a bitter battle with cancer took her life, Buck was left with only a broken heart and his work for company. Buck is a senior agent with the Colorado Bureau of Investigation. He's immersed himself in a triple-homicide case—partially because that's just how he tackles his work and partially to distract himself from grief. Then Buck is reassigned to the town of Durango after rumors of Mexican cartel activity there surface. Now Buck must try to regain his characteristic quick wit and keen eye, for the danger is much greater than anyone suspected. To make matters worse, the murder suspects in Buck's previous case are still at large and have it in for him. The once-peaceful town of Durango is primed like a powder keg, and as Buck pries into the cartel's operations, sparks will fly.

When news of Mexican gang activity reaches local authorities in Durango, Colorado, the bucolic peace of the small town is shattered. Realizing the severity of the threat, the sheriff's office reaches out for assistance. With years of hard-earned experience, Senior Agent Buck Taylor from the Colorado Bureau of Investigation is unquestionably the man for the job. As talented a sleuth as there ever was, Buck is known for his dogged determination. Buck's last case—a gruesome triple homicide in Teller County—has served as a productive distraction from the grief etched into his heart by the recent death of his wife of thirty-five years. Now, as he turns his attention to the trouble in Durango, Buck finds himself drawn into the dangerous world of cartel violence, drugs, and human trafficking. But as Buck focuses on the cartel case, the players in his triple-homicide investigation become more prominent—and deadly—than ever. With multiple agencies—including the FBI, the DEA, and ICE—converging on Durango and numerous criminals gunning for Buck's life, the stage is set for a fiery showdown. Crime Interrupted is a thriller that will have readers burning through the pages.
