Produktbeschreibung

When the drinks are flowing and the money's good, crime is one temptation George Sisco finds hard to resist...

After three years behind bars in a Rhode Island state prison, all George wants is to live a somewhat normal life. Maybe he'll meet a nice girl...open the restaurant he always talked about in the yard. But after a couple of beers and a half bottle of bourbon, George heads out in the middle of the night and breaks into a local boxer's home. He walks out six minutes later with a championship belt and a box full of cash he found bolted to the bottom of the bed. When he meets Sam, a pretty waitress working her way through school at the diner, George promises himself he's done with crime...and the only life he's known will be a thing of the past. If it were only so easy… The floodgates open when George runs into some old friends. Violence and double-crossing follow when a simple plan goes a little too far. And every move they make drags them deeper into a hole they can't seem to escape. With the cops on their tail, it'll take everything George has to find a way out of a bad situation that only gets worse... But what if one more crime's the answer?

Autorenporträt

Gregory has written over twenty-three books, and is the author of four mystery and crime fiction series, including the Henry Walsh Private Investigator series, the US Marshal Charlie Harlow series, the Joe Sheldon crime series, and the new Jake Horn mysteries. His standalone crime novels include Drag the Man Down, Half Cocked, Danny Womack's .38, Biscayne Boogie, and a number of published short stories.He won his first award as a writer at ten years old, after sending a story to the Providence Journal about his pet husky being shot by a local farmer. The writing most likely wasn't very good, but the fact a young boy's dog was shot (true story!) tugged at the editor's heart strings just enough.His dog, luckily, survived.But that wasn't a paid gig, so years later he ended up in advertising. He eventually became a copywriter, specializing in direct mail and writing fundraising letters to help raise money for animals and children.The first book he wrote was nonfiction, but he quickly realized he wasn't smart enough to be giving anyone advice. He finally decided making up lies for a living would be much more fun.Somehow, he became an author.Raised in Providence, Rhode Island, Gregory lives with his wife, kids, and his dog, Jake, in North Carolina.
