"Authentico Foods Inc. has been a part of Detroit's Mexican town for over thirty years, grown from a home kitchen business to a city-block-long facility that supplies Mexican tortillas to restaurants throughout the Midwest. Detroit ex-cop and Mexican town native August Snow has been invited for a business meeting at Authentico Foods. Its owner, Ronaldo Ochoa, is dying, and is being blackmailed into selling the company to an anonymous entity. Worried about his employees, Ochoa wants August to buy it. August has no interest in running a tortilla empire, but he does want to know who's threatening his neighborhood. Quickly, his investigation takes a devastating turn and he and his loved ones find themselves ensnared in a dangerous net of ruthless billionaire developers. August Snow must fight not only for his life, but for the soul of Mexican town itself"-- Provided by publisher.

Mack Jones does it again submitted by mowjac on July 19, 2021, 9:46am The third August Snow novel continues the wild ride of snappy dialogue, deep loyalty and vigilante justice in the D, but this time, in winter. Jones continues to develop Snow's character and we finally meet his girlfriend while taking on topics as gentrification, white supremacy and the one percent. I'm not a noir reader, but I love Snow's character and his abiding love for Detroit and Mexicantown.

Riveting crime novel submitted by pamhockey25 on July 24, 2022, 5:37pm August is back in his third novel, and he still keeps my attention. While you don't have to read the other books to enjoy this one, I recommend it. August Snow is funny, intelligent, tough, and endearing. Each book keeps getting better. It's nice to get to know this character as the series goes on. Looking forward to book 4!
