Publisher's Synopsis
Death and Taxes follows Mark Douglas, an ex-Marine turned IRS agent, who, along with auditing the weird and the profane, also heads out with his lock-and-loaded gang of government-sanctioned revenuers, merrily gathering back taxes in the form of cash, certified cheque, or more often, a debtor's most prized possessions. Things turn ugly when Mark's much-loved boss and dear friend Lila is tortured and killed over what she finds in a routine set of 1040 forms. Mark follows a trail dotted with plutonium-enriched cows; a Saudi sheik with jewel-encrusted body parts; a doddering drug sniffing, gun-swallowing dog named The Cabbage; a self-righteous magician with a flair for cracking safes; a billionaire Texan with a fetish for spicy barbecue sauce and even spicier women; and an FBI agent whose nickname is "Tightass." All of which lead to more and bloodier murders - and more and bloodier danger for Mark himself.
