Cody LeMaster's past was brutal.
His future is worse.
When eighteen year old Cody LeMaster packs his bags and hitchhikes out of the tiny farming community of Travis, Oklahoma, it's the middle of the night.
And it's raining.
And Cody has no idea where he's headed.
The world he's leaving behind is brutal and dangerous. The world he is about to enter is worse. A trucker with a secret, a small-town cop who is not what he appears to be, and a series of terrifying events leave Cody questioning everything, even as he fights for his life...

Praise for OKLAHOMA NOCTURNE:
"This is rural noir at its finest. Lyrical, brutal, and terrifying, Oklahoma Nocturne is unputdownable, and Allan Leverone is at the absolute top of his game. I'm still catching my breath." --Jon Bassoff, author of Beneath Cruel Waters
Praise for Allan Leverone's noir/crime fiction:
‘As poignant as it is bleak and violent, Allan Leverone’s Chasing China White is a powerful, expertly written slice of gritty, bare-bones crime fiction, and just like the addiction it explores, once it has you in its grip, all you want is more. Highly recommended.’ —Greg F. Gifune, author of Dangerous Boys
‘As dark as the bottom of a well, this story clips along from one calamity to another. The real suspense here is whether Derek will see redemption, but Leverone makes us question if anyone really does. This is a strong dose that gets your heart pumping and will make you sweat, but like an addict, you won��t want to quit.’ —Eric Beetner, author of All the Way Down
‘Chasing China White starts with a simple premise—a desperate junkie agrees to do a favor for his dealer—but with each page, Allan Leverone raises the stakes and turns the screws until you’re left holding your breath at the edge of your seat. This noir tale is impossible to set aside until you follow its spiral all the way down.’ ���Hilary Davidson, Anthony Award–winning author of One Small Sacrifice
"The successor to Michael Crichton has landed. And his name is Allan Leverone." -- Vincent Zandry, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of The Remains and The Innocent
"Allan Leverone delivers a taut crime drama full of twists and conspiracy" -- Scott Nicholson, bestselling author of Liquid Fear
