Tasking is an entrepreneur whose business is people, and when it comes to people he
specializes in risk, pleasure, and fear. He knows what will break you - before you
even feel a second of pain. Tasking has everything and everyone, in his orbit, under
control. If there's something he wants he will alter your life, elaborately and maliciously,
until you yield to his wishes. He knows what makes the Machos tick - and how to keep
them in the dark. The police tried to keep Tasking down with their macho modus operandi,
sent him away long ago, but they couldn't keep him incarcerated forever. Now he's
older, uncommonly careful, and keeps the machos oblivious to his enterprises. But
when he meets a dancer named Erin Green at the Cherry Red strip club everything changes.
He knows the streets of Great Crown, Florida can only be dominated by the remorseless
insights of a relentless slick like him. The brothels and gambling parlors secreted
behind iron doors keep the slick autonomous and successful, but Erin proves to be
the variable that could put him on a collision course with unrepentant sadists, machos,
and a trap created by the slick's own extortionist machinations."--Provided by publisher
