Beckie and Ian accept a standard "cost plus half-spoils" contract to prevent a Mexican prosecutor from receiving a Father's Day present he doesn't want: his daughter's head, gift wrapped. Both the girl and the drug cartel—the one the prosecutor's working to eliminate—provide lots of opportunity to save her life. One of those 'opportunities' may allow the "half-spoils" clause to go into effect, as it exposes a blackmail operation that has few qualms about under-age prostitutes. Sonora state in Mexico provides a beautiful setting for action that hardly stops for the life of this contract. Father's Day, the seventh book in the Rebecca Jamse Thriller series, is set in an approximation to the real world. Father's Day was previously published as Low Places. This edition has a new title and cover, and revised front and back matter, with inconsequential changes to the story.
