The ruthless [BOOK] / David Putnam. Sarasota, FL : Oceanview Publishing, 2021. 325 pages ; 24 cm. Bruno Johnson ; 8 "Pushed to his emotional limit, Los Angeles County Sheriff Deputy Bruno Johnson struggles to hold his family together while immersed in his unrelenting career. His daughter, Olivia, is a teen mom to twin toddlers; her common-law husband, Derek Sams, is a thug; and one of their little boys has disappeared under his care. The overwhelming intensity demanded of Bruno on this personal level is compounded by the brutal shotgun murder of a superior court judge and his wife, both friends of his. Bruno cannot ignore these violent crimes even though he's supposedly off the law enforcement grid--undercover--working an illegal gun sting. Tragedy strikes Bruno's life on all fronts: family, friends, and professional--however, none of these colossal forces can match the unthinkable catastrophe that will forever dominate Bruno's life.". 20220218.
