Steve McKuen used to be a drug dealer, a thoughtful, highly moral former drug dealer who lost his soul mate in an assassination attempt. He’s blindsided when faced with a threat to his legitimate business. Now he’s a generous guy, working through the typical kinds of problems of running a small business in present-day Santa Monica.
A psychopathic con artist, John Christian, creates an almost perfect counterfeiting method. He murders his mother, and wants revenge on McKuen for the death of his sister.
After McKuen is almost killed in a horrible accident, he learns of Christian’s involvement in his wife’s death. He turns to his assistant, Dennis Reneaux, and legendary detective, Charlotte Coil, to bring Christian to justice.
Surprisingly inspirational, Illusion is a suspense story with some adult content.
