Out Now

Caprock

A town bought one bad year at a time. One holdout left. And a hired hand who used to do this for a living.

Lang has been devouring this town inch by inch. He doesn’t make threats. He makes clean offers and waits out the drought, letting every failed harvest dump another acre into his lap ahead of a highway project no one else knows is coming. Now his map is almost filled. Only one holdout stands between him and total control—a woman whose father left Lang’s numbers unopened in a drawer until the day he died. She buried him and kept it that way.

Cooper took a fence job on her wire. He works in silence, but beneath his calluses is a brutal history Caprock isn’t ready for: eleven years back east as the heavy outfits sent in when polite offers failed. He was the best at what he did until he walked away.

Lang has never lost a town. But he’s about to push a man who knows exactly how to tear one down—and find out what it takes to put a man like Liam Cooper back to work.

“A thoroughly enjoyable throwback to the small-town desert noirs of earlier eras.”IndieReader

Press It

Seventy-two hours. Fifty-two thousand dollars. The FBI offers him a way out — he sees a way in.

Frank Larson used to walk high rollers into Vincent Deluca’s private games in Las Vegas, and people called him Lucky and meant it. Then the luck went, then the money, then the wife. Now Frank owes Deluca fifty-two thousand dollars, and Deluca has given him seventy-two hours.

Deluca came up through bookmaking and collections, and he’s about to buy his way into a casino. He keeps a page in his book on every man who owes him. Frank’s goes back twenty years.

Every bet Frank makes to get clear puts him in deeper, until he gets between Deluca and a delivery Deluca is waiting on. So is the FBI.

The FBI offers him a way out: help them bring Deluca down. Frank sees a way in: bring Deluca the delivery, take a seat at his game the night the money’s due, and play his way clear.

Now he’s playing both sides, and the people who trusted him are the ones paying. And every time he gets ahead, he does what he’s always done.

He presses it.
