The olive horseshoe

the long version

"Billionaire Denton Wright is kayaking in the wilderness when his father's mutilated body washes up on the Spanish coast. Denton's father and another man were slaughtered in a drug cartel's signature way: The Columbian Necktie. The father-son relationship had figured large in Denton's wilderness trek. Now he burns with a passion: payback against whoever butchered the father he never really knew. It would not be easy. There was: Beautiful but calculating Jenna Rogers in California, whose father was murdered alongside Denton's, and she had plans of her own ; Carlos La Jolla, Jenna's companion, a hot-blooded Latin with a sculpted body and black belt training, whose eyes give away nothing except a challenge to fight ; Joe Corsano, in business with Denton's father, working some devious gambit of his own. Denton Wright must navigate all of it as he's drawn into an intrigue of evil on a global scale. When he learns of The Olive Horseshoe, innocent and guilty alike start to die-- A fast, tough book about a man on a soul search for meaning in his life - and the violent brutal events that test him"--Author's web site.
