But now he has no choice. He's going to have to bring the personal and the professional together.His family's troubles with the Espino-Gallo Cartel started before the Transnistria mission. His father's New Mexico ranch lies right on the fledgling cartel's infiltration route into the United States. It hadn't gone much farther than threats and trespassing.But while Mario was in Eastern Europe, Old Man Gomez was murdered, and Mario's sister Sonya kidnapped.There's no paycheck to be had. But John Brannigan has always been the sort of leader who takes care of his own, and Mario is one of his boys. The Espino-Gallo Cartel is about to learn the high price of messing with a Blackheart's family.
