Nineteen years in Night Cover plus five years running the Missing Persons Bureau in the Indianapolis PD has certainly distinguished Lt. Leroy Powder’s already salty humor. It’s also granted him an unusual appreciation for the breadth of human behavior. When a twelve-year-old kid struts into the precinct claiming his father’s missing, Powder’s instincts tell him this won’t be a simple case. But neither is the fact that a sick killer is on the loose, targeting the city’s paraplegics. And now he’s got to play dad to his own son fresh out of an eighteen-month stint in prison. For Powder, it’s enough inspiration to crack an ill-timed joke or two, especially when the Feds suspect the lieutenant’s not playing it straight. Regardless, it’s time to get justice done. The question is who’s going to pay for it. Late Payments is the 3rd book in the Lt. Leroy Powder Novels
