Over the many years that Inspector Brant has been bringing his own patented brand of policing
to the streets of southeast London the brilliant but tough cop has made a few enemies. So when
a crazed gunman hired by persons unknown pumps a magazine full of bullets into Brant in a
local pub leaving him in grasping at life (but ornery as ever) his colleagues on the squad
are left wondering how to react. Brant's old partner Inspector Roberts the man who may know
him best finds himself wondering why someone didn't shoot the hateful detective years ago. In
Ken Bruen's Ammunition they're all about to find out that the answer is quite simple: if you
come after Brant you'd damn well better kill him the first time--because if you don't you
won't want to stick around to find out what happens next.
