Description

Cox Delaney is very successful in his father-in-law's firm. Now he knows too much. Patrice Orosco is a newly minted graduate of the University of Texas, San Antonio. She is determined to continue what has been an impressive career as a news hawk while still a student. Cox Delaney finds his life spiraling into oblivion in the course of a single night. In a startling move, Patrice accepts a post with the Cleveland Plain Dealer, far from her beloved family in McAllen, Texas, and her adopted San Antonio. Her first assignment is to write a lengthy piece about the homeless in Cleveland, a job that promises to be an exercise in despair. Little did she know she would soon be embroiled in a deadly corporate plot to track down a man who is in possession of knowledge so dangerous it threatens the very survival of a huge enterprise. Caught between frightening human degradation and high dollar greed, Patrice hooks up with the enigmatic Red Dog. Will he be her salvation, or her ruin? At once a tender love story and a thoroughly engrossing thriller, Neon Streets is filled with memorable characters that speak eloquently of the human condition. "Vin Smith is a gifted and intuitive novelist with a strong sense of story, narrative and character development. Each well-researched and developed chapter of Neon Streets is, in fact, brimming with 'colorful characters,' and provides a compelling read." Gregg Hunter, Producer/Host "Gregg Hunter's World," CRN Digital Talk
