① At Their Own Game: Jake Stankovic has been flying below the radar for years, dealing safely in stolen property crime. When he tries to make a drug deal, everything goes wrong: a bad deal, a vengeful detective, a possible turncoat in his crew, and a woman from his past suddenly reappears.

The woman is the detective's ex-wife.

And Jake Stankovic used to be a cop.

② In the Cut: Boone has been prospecting with the Iron Brotherhood outlaw motorcycle gang for almost a year, trying to earn his patch. A simple muscle job goes terribly wrong and changes his world forever. He's plunged deeper into a world in which the lines between right and wrong blur. The bonds of brotherhood that he forges with other members clash with the dark actions they take. His girlfriend, Faith, is danger of another kind, but Boone can’t stop himself with her, either.

Then someone closest to him dies, and rampant rumors of a rat in the clubhouse emerge. Boone will learn what it really means to live his life…In the Cut.

③ All the Pieces Fall: George “Mase” Masaryk knows about secrets. He is mulling over those secrets when businessman Andrew McDonough sits down next to him at the bar and the pair start drinking heavily. McDonough eventually asks Mase for his help. It is a request Mase doesn’t even remember until Faye McDonough, Andrew’s wife, jogs a foggy memory when shows up at his office to hire him.

Faye wants him to find McDonough, who is now missing. She doesn’t know if he’s run off with a lover, been kidnapped, or is dead, expecting Mase to find out. But as he delves into the secrets that surround the man, Mase encounters more dangerous questions than answers. If he’s going to survive to learn the truth, he needs to find that one fact that will make all of the pieces fall into place…
