Nick McCarty comes out of retirement at the urging of his partner, Gus Nason. After a difficult hit overseas, his stepdaughter Jean asks Nick to intercede in a teacher's problematic family troubles. In no time at all, the bodies are piling up, and the tendrils threatening both Nick's family, along with his bestselling author status spread at record speed.

A stone-cold killer with family and friends is a dangerous business, but when bad people threaten Nick's Pacific Grove home, it becomes a deadly business. Nick's up to the mark, with his family and friends holding on tight for yet another McCarty journey into darkness.

Book 3 - Sins and Sanctions
El Muerto began as a joke by writer/assassin Nick McCarty’s partner, Gus. In Nick’s offbeat sense of violent humor, he makes El Muerto into a terrifying legend. Adding his partner Gus into the mix as Payaso his sidekick, Nick enters the realm of serial killers and terrorists with a vengeance.

Nick McCarty’s new boss opens the keys to the kingdom for the coldest blooded killer he’s ever met. Deciding when fighting psychopathic murderers and terrorist cells hell bent on America’s destruction, there is one old football cliché that fits – winning isn’t everything… it’s the only thing. Nick’s book tour turns into a bloody rampage, leaving little doubt he embraces his boss’s new management style. Returning to his Pacific Grove refuge with family and friends, Nick decides to bring his deadly business more into the open… and business is good.

Another home run by Deleo

Just a great read.

This one has Nick McCarty his pregnant wife Rachel, daugher Jean, Deke the Australian Shepherd and partner Gus Nason.

Nick and family live in Groves Point., CA. Nicks very nice house overlooks the beach. Its a place Nick and family call home. Nick never thought he could get into the family thing but now that he has he finds he's very happy being a husband to Rachel and a Father to Jean and having a son on the way.

Nick's been trying to retire from his assassin job. Gus, however, thinks he should keep his hand in the game just in case. Nick's daughter Jean also has a couple of problems she wants Nick to solve. A very reluctant Nick.

Nick takes a job in the sandbox. This one in Iran. Gus is along as his number two. He of course tells Rachel he's "researching" his latest Diego novel a story Rachel doesn't buy for minute one.

Nick kills his man after having to wait three days for the perfect shot. Nick is sick of sand, sweat and waiting. He's looking forward to Groves Point. Nick decides that this is the last time he will be in the sandbox.

He and Gus are in Port Fujairah. They make it back to port after blowing an Iranian gunboat out of the water after said gunboat tried to blow them up. No survivors. Nick and Gus could care less.

They are in Port Fujairah at the Harbor Club to meet the man who hired them, one Gil Montrose.

The hit was sanctioned by the CIA and Montrose is the contact. Montrose tries to screw Nick on payment Nick is not pleased and has no problem letting Montrose know how close to death he is. Montrose backs down and payment if forwarded to Nick's account. They then part company.

In the middle of the night four men appear. The four weren't nearly good enough. The four are now among the missing and Montrose is among the dead.

After their return Nick tries to disuade Jean from getting him involved in the problems of others. Jean isn't disuaded and Nick decides to try to see if he can help.

Nick convinces the parents of Jeans best friend that dealing drugs is a no no. His methods are far from civil, moral or humane. The parents caught the damned clue. Problem number one solved.

Number two involves Jean's teacher Dimah Kader who is Muslim.

Dimah is engaged to a US Marine. A Marine who's stationed in Afghanistan.

The family is not pleased.

Dimah's Uncle Naseer and cousin Saif have been involved in honor killing in the Middle East. Dimah is afraid she is next on their list.

Nick can't stand Sharia Law and he removes Uncle Naseer. A heart attack rather like the one Montrose suffered.

Nick also removes Saif when that moron charges through the school full of kids with a gun and takes shots at Dimah.

Nick tackles the idiot and makes it look like Saif was shot when the gun they were both struggling for went off. Nick is grazed in the head but manages to kill Saif before he passes out. When he comes to he discovers that he's a hero.

So begins one humorous and very good read.

This one has Nick, Rachel, Jean, Gus, Gus's fiance Tina, Deke, the CIA, murder, attempted murder, Nick's property in Carmel Valley, a new very trustworthy CIA Handler, some dirty CIA agents, a couple of dirty newscasters, Nicks old pals Tim and Grace from the US Marshals office, the AG's Office, Dan, Carol and Joe from Groves Point, the Kader family who keep trying to kill Nick, a yacht called the Shalimar, a high end prostitute, her pimp, a "hacker" chip, everyones after, an old enemy of Nicks from his Delta days, a book signing tour, a few more deaths on that tour, Nick and family finding that living in peace is something that is apparantly out of their reach and a Nick who's beginning to believe that a peaceful life is highly overrated.

Just a great read full of humor, loads of action, new characters and worth way more than five Stars.

Mr. Peter Franklin

Killer Review.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 February 2018

Excellent storytelling. But perfect? Not there yet.

This is the second book in this series and I found it just as riveting. The cold hearted killer that actually does have feelings (if very selective) is a winner. The other characters are interesting too. The simple, methodical way that Nick deals out his stock in trade is sometimes frightening, sometimes sudden and always effective. Then in an instant, he reverts to the family man.

But I said at the top, this isn't a perfect book. One very harsh reviewer called it "banal" but fails to justify that in any way. I would observe that the writing sometimes does err on the side of simplicity, but this is simply DeLeo's style. Read the book and the review, then decide which is the more banal, this book or that reviewer. The only real criticism I have is that the storyline is a little haphazard. But I would mitigate that by also observing that in being less structured, it actually reflects reality to a better degree.

So, to summarise, I liked it. Enough to move onto book 3 in the series. Onwards and upwards!
