Shane Scully, LAPD detective and hero of the bestseller 'The Tin Collectors', returns in another gripping thriller.
Scully's previous case resulted in a six months psychiatric leave of absence, and in 'The Viking Funeral' he again becomes immersed in a world of corruption - a world that takes him to the frontline of the drug wars in Central America.
When Scully sees his oldest friend and colleague Jody Dean driving a car two years after his supposed suicide, he is plunged into a conspiracy deep within the LAPD. Scully discovers that not only is Jody very much alive, but he is also a member of the Vikings, a desperate group of corrupt undercover cops.
Now Scully is forced to go up against his best friend in order to bring these dangerous rogue cops to justice and begins a terrifying odyssey that leads him deep into the corrupt world of the LAPD and to the edge of his own tortured psyche.
