  Joe Pike has been a secondary character in the highly enjoyable Elvis Cole series of author Robert Crais. The series about ever wise-cracking Cole with support from the ever enigmatic Joe Pike has continued to get better and better. This book focuses on Pike and reveals much of his background. Pike is an old fashioned hero in a modern world. He wants to serve and protect those who are weaker and in need, going ever forward by his moral code, propelled by his own hellacious past.

  If I had never read of him in the Cole novels perhaps I would not have liked this quite as much, but I did and I do.
