The excitement continues in The Thousand Dollar Maniac, the devastating new novel in J.T. Brannan's bestselling Colt Ryder series, from a thriller writer at the top of his game.
Vigilante-for-hire Colt Ryder is in Chicago with his loyal dog Kane when he receives a plea for help from a couple whose teenaged granddaughter has gone missing.
When Colt starts to investigate, he discovers that the girl was working on the streets, and isn’t the only person to have gone missing. As he digs deeper, it looks like streetwalkers, runaways and homeless young women have been disappearing for years – and although the local community suspects that a serial killer is on the loose, the cops have no interest in solving these crimes, as they don’t affect the ‘decent’ citizens of the city.
Colt has other ideas though and – teeming up with the one detective in the Chicago PD who seems to take the problem seriously – sets about finding out what’s really going on. What they discover is a horrific nightmare that shocks Colt to his very core – a sadistic maniac who has been operating under the radar, taking women at will as law enforcement looks the other way.
But where the cops have failed, the Thousand Dollar Man vows to do their job for them, and bring the psychopathic killer to justice, any way he can.
The Thousand Dollar Maniac is a terrifying new thriller that will keep you reading all night long!
