EIGHT BALL is an action-packed crime thriller that will appeal to fans of Lee Child, Vince Flynn and Mark Dawson.
Home for Trent Rivera is an abstract concept; less a location and more a state of mind. But the funeral of an old friend drags the ex-soldier back to the town he grew up in.
He believes it will be a fleeting visit. A chance to pay his respects before returning to the solitary life he’s committed to ever since leaving the Army.
But Trent Rivera doesn’t go looking for trouble. It finds him…
Old grudges run deep, and the area’s almost tribal lines have grown more pronounced over time. The shadows of the past are never far away; the bogeymen of his youth have simply become older, richer, more powerful versions of their former selves.
A drugs empire is operating in plain sight and ruling with an iron fist. To stop it, Rivera will need the help of friends he’s not seen for years. But drafting them risks putting them in the line of fire. And him being involved means returning to a life he left behind long ago.
Is it a risk he’s willing to take?
Although the Trent Rivera novels can be read in any order, Eight Ball is the eighth book in the series. If you enjoy crime thrillers, then this is definitely the book for you!
