Let Thy Children Come - A Hammer & Sharpe Noir Mystery Thriller, Book 1 Paperback

A missing child. A bomb in a bank. Two broken men with nothing left to lose. Two days before Halloween, seven-year-old Kyle Robinson vanishes on his way home from school. Desperate, his parents turn to private investigator Sam Sharpe—a man with a cynical streak, a haunted past, and just enough sobriety to stay on the case. Sharpe’s search quickly pulls him into the orbit of Wallace North, a ruthless crime boss whose grip on the city runs deep—and whose secrets may be tied to something much darker than a missing boy. Across town, Judah Hammer walks out of prison after three years for manslaughter. He wants a fresh start with his sprawling, complicated family. But when his father—a respected banker—is killed by a bomb at work, Judah suspects it wasn’t random. All signs point to Wallace North. As Sharpe and Hammer follow their own twisted paths toward the truth, their lives—and their demons—collide in a storm of corruption, violence, and betrayal. The streets are cold. The truth is colder
