Weinstein solves the murder but he can't get the evidence to make an arrest—the only person who can do that is Menden. Working together in an uneasy alliance, the two men join forces to bring down Rebecca's killer. Weinstein, the lawman, guides Menden, the journalist into a powerful paramilitary organization where his every move will be scrutinized and vetted by dangerous men, and where his body and soul will be tested in the extreme.

T. Jefferson Parker is the bestselling author of 28 crime novels, including Edgar Award-winners "Silent Joe" and "California Girl." Parker's latest work, "The Rescue", explores the strength of the human-animal bond and how far we will go to protect what we love.
Parker was born in L.A. and grew up in Southern California. He studied English at UC Irvine and worked as a newspaper reporter for five years while writing his first book, "Laguna Heat" on evenings and weekends. HBO made "Laguna Heat" into one of its first original television movies in 1987.
Although the "T" is part of his legal name it does not stand for a name. It is a decorative initial put there by his parents, who once told him they thought T. Jefferson Parker would look good on the White House door.
Parker lives in north San Diego County, and enjoys fishing, hiking and just about anything outdoors.
