 BLURB:
Pete
 Fernandez has settled into an easy, if somewhat boring life as a P.I.  
He takes pictures of cheating husbands. He tracks criminals who've 
skipped bail and he attends weekly AA meetings. The days of chasing 
murderous killers are behind him. Or are they?
When
 his sometimes partner Kathy Bentley approaches him with a  potential 
new client, Pete balks. Not because he doesn't need the money, but 
because the case involves Gaspar Varela, a former Miami police officer 
serving a life sentence for the murder of his wife - one of the most 
infamous crimes in Miami history. The client? None other than Varela's 
daughter, Maya, who has doggedly supported her father's claims of 
innocence. 
As
 Pete and Kathy wade into a case that no one wants, they also find 
themselves in the crosshairs of Los Enfermos, a bloodthirsty gang of 
pro-Castro killers and drug dealers looking to wipe Pete off the Miami 
map. As if trying to exonerate Varela wasn't enough, they find 
themselves entangled in something even older and more surprising: a 
bloody, political hit ordered by Fidel Castro himself, that left a still
 healing scar on Pete and his dead father's past.
Fast
 paced, hardboiled and surprising, Dangerous Ends pushes Pete Fernandez 
into a battle with a deadlier, more complex threat,  as he tries to 
shake off the demons haunting Miami's own, sordid past.

MY THOUGHTS
First
 off, you may want to read the first two books  to get a background on 
the characters and some information on the setting.  You do get a bit of
 information from the first two books in the third book, though.  Corruption on the dark side of Miami.  
Do
 you like danger, dead bodies, murder, investigators?  I could go on and
 on. This book gives that private investigator in you everything you 
need to help solve the case.
Varela,
 a cop, was convicted of his wife's murder but was he guilty?  Maya, his
 daughter, thinks not.  She feels they convicted the wrong person.   
There was someone who saw what happened according to Varela.  But  
Varela's colleagues decided he was lying and so it went to trial.   The 
woman that saw the crime, got on the stand and took back her statement. 
 The only hope left after appeals and appeals, is another trial, but 
that means starting over and trying to find new, more substantial 
evidence and witnesses, if there is any.
 So
 Maya hires a couple to help.  Kathy and Pete.  Pete investigates and 
Kathy writes a book.   Will truth be found?   There's another problem.  
Someone doesn't want them to find the truth.  Now other lives are at 
stake, literally.   Some could die trying to clear Varela.   Will Pete 
continue to try to solve this case even though he could die trying?   
And, Why would anyone go to those extents to hide the truth?  Could the 
gangs of Miami be involved? But why? Could it be the murderer? If so, 
why kill Varela's wife? and frame him?
  
So
 if you like investigating murders and such while sitting in your arm 
chair late at night,  open the book.  Sometimes truth is hard to bring 
to light but Pete Fernandez isn't giving up, at least as long as he's 
alive.
Put
 your investigative skills to work and stand by Pete as he tries to 
clear Varela of murder.  But you might want to watch your back.  Someone
 is free out there. It may be the murderer who doesn't want the truth to
 be found.  WATCH YOUR BACK! and read on!
I received a copy of this book and voluntarily decided to review it.
