Blood Tattoo (A Nicholas Colt Thriller)

After last year€s harrowing experience with a gruesome serial killer in Key West, rock-star-turned-PI Nicholas Colt has decided to hang up his investigator hat and settle into a nice quiet life of teaching guitar and spending time with his family. Or so he thinks€¦

Unfortunately, everything changes when an undercover Department of Defense investigator named Diana Dawkins comes crashing into his life. Diana tells Colt he has been recruited into The Circle, a super-secret organization€"a mystery even to the CIA and the Secret Service€"charged with protecting the country from terrorists at any cost. The only evidence of his involvement is a tiny spot€"a €œblood tattoo€ on his left foot, invisible to the naked eye€"that marks all members of The Circle. Diana needs Colt€s help, and she€s willing to pay him well for it.

Suddenly, Colt finds himself a key player in an elaborate effort to defend the president of the United States against an assassination attempt. His hush-hush missions for Diana and The Circle are becoming increasingly surreal€"and deadly. Colt realizes he could lose everything, even the wife he loves. Will he be able to stop the terrorists in time? And at what cost?
