The action continues in The Thousand Dollar Storm, the thrill-a-minute 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 helps people who have nowhere else to turn, for a thousand dollars a time; and when he travels up to Alaska with his faithful canine Kane to visit an old friend, he soon discovers that it’s not just people in the Lower 48 who desperately need his services – the Thousand Dollar Man has work to do in the Last Frontier, too.
Margaret Henschel lost her husband the year before – a bank manager killed during an armed robbery for which nobody was ever arrested. She asks Colt to try and find the violent gang who did it, and to bring them to justice.
But Colt soon finds out that the gang isn’t just responsible for the one bank job, or a single murder – on the contrary, they have been plying their deadly trade across the state for years, robbing dozens of banks in different towns and cities, and killing several people along the way. All of the various police departments, the State Troopers, and even the FBI, have so far failed to run these men to ground, and Colt discovers this is because it is believed that between jobs, the gang hides out somewhere within the vast Alaskan wilderness, needles in a haystack that the authorities believe will never be found.
Undeterred by the scale of the mission, Colt and Kane head into the dangerous wilds of America’s largest state, determined to track down and capture the murderous criminals. But with the storm of the century moving in across the enormous, forested mountains of the Alaskan backcountry, they discover that if they are to stand any chance of bringing this violent gang of desperate armed men to justice, they must also survive the immense natural ferocity of Alaska itself.
THE THOUSAND DOLLAR STORM is an intensely exciting, pulse-pounding thriller that will that will keep you reading all night long.
