About the Book

Jack Baddalach's back...

...and he's got a job to do. Escort a Chihuahua named Spike across the desert from Palm Springs to Las Vegas. But this isn't just any Chihuahua. Spike is under the protection of Freddie Gemignani, the shady casino owner who pays Jack's check. When Spike is dognapped by a band of machine-gunning women in black leather, Jack knows there has to be something bigger at stake. After all, it's a dog. Soon he's up to his fists in lowlifes – including a rattlesnake-handling preacher and the newly crowned heavyweight champion of the world. Surviving it all might get Jack a real life. And maybe one last shot in the ring for the greatest title in the whole damn planet...
