California, 1973. Back home after three years in the jungles of Southeast Asia, former Green Beret Jamie "Hangman" Lynch is enjoying the good life, drinking beer and chasing skirts along San Diego's Mission Beach. But Lynch finds himself growing increasingly restless, and dreaming of getting back into the fight again.

Lynch asks his former commanding officer for guidance, and is offered a chance at some excitement: a private sector job working for the CEO of a San Francisco tech company in need of a man who's not afraid to get his hands dirty. The assignment? Hunt down a man named Roth, a whiz-kid engineer in debt to the Vegas mob. Roth has stolen an advanced military prototype and is looking to sell it to the highest bidder.

Lynch accepts the job and finds himself working with Richard, an enigmatic Texan mercenary, and Blake, the company's head of security. The three men face off against Cranston, a murderous ex-cop turned enforcer-for-hire, who's got an army of ruthless thugs turning San Francisco upside down looking for Roth. If Cranston gets to Roth before Lynch and his partners do, Roth can kiss the prototype - and his life - goodbye.

SAN FRANCISCO SLAUGHTER is a hard-edged action-adventure novel. There's drinking, profanity, and sex. There's fast cars and big guns, sharp knives and loose women. Arson, torture, and murder are just tools in the hands of men who'll do whatever it takes to get the job done. And while the good guys aren't so great, the bad guys are even worse.
