The Patsy

by Bert Silva

An ex-convict, determined to return to an honest and productive life, is coerced into participating in a political killing. Jackson Mize finds himself trapped in a deadly situation where other people will be hurt if he doesn't go along with the scheme. Even the authorities seem intent on violating Mize's parole and sending him back to prison. But who is the desperate villain behind it all? And how can Mize flush him out into the open? Will he remain alive long enough to expose the mysterious individual who has made Jackson Mize into a scapegoat, and blamed for a vicious murder?
