SHERIFF COLT HARPER IS BACK OLD ANGER, Phillip Thompson's long-awaited sequel to OUTSIDE THE LAW, is now available for pre-order! Sheriff Colt Harper believes he's colorblind in his enforcement of the law. But is he? When a black man is murdered, it ignites age-old anger in the African-American community over the injustices they've endured and forces Harper to confront his own personal demons. Harper's single-minded pursuit of justice for the dead man thrusts him between two volatile groups—furious blacks who don't know if they can trust him and racist whites who want to use the controversy to spark a bloody race war. "OLD ANGER has some sweet echoes of the past while being something modern at the same time. Pacing is outstanding and the story is engaging. It has a western rash under its skin." —Joe R. Lansdale A STORME IS COMING W.L. Ripley's THUNDER STORME, the long-awaited 5th Wyatt Storme novel, is now available for preorder! Former NFL All-Pro Wyatt Storme and ex-CIA assassin Chick Easton are fishing on the Lake of the Ozarks when gunmen blow by them in a boat, chasing a determined woman seeking justice for her family. Wyatt and Chick save the woman and are swept into a violent battle for control of a new casino and all the riches and power it will bring. The Kansas City mob, the Dixie Mafia and the local syndicate have them out-numbered and out-gunned but it's the gangsters who should be worried. There's a deadly storm coming... and his name is Wyatt. "The perfect storm of witty banter, clever action, and compelling mystery." —Reed Farrel Coleman “Storme is one of my all-time favorite series characters, up there with Spenser and Dave Robicheaux.” —Ace Atkins GREAT REVIEWS ARE CHASING JACK The rave reviews keep coming in for Parnell Hall's outrageously original new thriller CHASING JACK, which will be released in just two weeks! Crime Time UK says: "Hall does a nice line in darkly comic, screwy crime fiction and this is a crisply entertaining read." Lawrence Block says: "CHASING JACK is what you'll find if you look up 'Black Humor' in your Funkin' Wagnalls. The wit is savage, the pace relentless. Parnell Hall, always outstanding, has never been better." Kirkus Reviews says that "Hall's character development and re-creation of retro backstage antics are a draw for theater lovers and readers of the American Mystery Classics." And Harlan Coben says "Parnell Hall has long been one of my favorite crime fiction writers. CHASING JACK is his best yet." WAVERLY'S GAMBLES IS A SURE BET All THREE of Tom Kakonis' wildly-acclaimed thrillers featuring Timothy Waverly, an ex-con and professional poker player who is as good at playing the hero as he is at playing the odds, are now combined into ONE budget priced ebook (FREE for Kindle Unlimited subscribers). "Hot-wired, no-holds-barred, masterful." —The Washington Post "Kakonis can really write. In Waverly, he gives us a wonderful character in a brutal world." —Tony Hillerman
