The Bootlegger by Clive Cussler and Justin Scott
Detective Isaac Bell is on the hunt for justice in this extraordinary adventure in the #1 New York Times bestselling series.

is 1921, and Prohibition is in full swing—even as millions still imbibe
and ruthless criminals get rich overnight by selling them booze. Cops,
Feds, and Coast Guardsmen are all susceptible to bribery. But when
Bell’s boss and lifelong friend Joseph Van Dorn is shot and near-fatally
wounded while chasing bootleggers, he enters the fray.
Bell
promises Van Dorn that he will try to save the detective agency from the
corrupting effects of Prohibition. But when the first witness to Van
Dorn’s shooting is executed in a ruthlessly efficient manner invented by

combating men far more deadly than ordinary criminals. And he’s about to
fight a one-man war… (From Amazon.com product listing.)
