Stampede City - Paperback

by Mk Pachan (Author)

As the Calgary Stampede kicks off the biggest party of the year, a young man is brutally murdered in broad daylight in his quiet neighbourhood.

Cam Clay, a seasoned detective with the Violent Crimes Division of the Calgary Police Service, is called to the scene to investigate. The victim has been shot execution-style in his driveway-a crime Clay and his colleagues initially chalk up to a hit by a local gang. But when conflicting evidence is unearthed and more bodies start to pile up, it becomes clear that a new player in town is trying to take over the streets of Calgary.

At a time when Clay is trying to manage his rocky love life, his father's declining health, and his troubled relationship with his son, it's just one more headache that he doesn't need.

And then he finds himself in the crosshairs of crime boss Simon McKeegan, whose explosive threats endanger not only Clay, but the Stampede celebrations and the entire city of Calgary.
