William Lashner recommends

The Drifter (2016)
(Peter Ash, book 1)
Nick Petrie
"Nick Petrie's The Drifter has one of the most thrilling openings I've ever read, involving a dank crawlspace, the nastiest, smelliest dog in creation, and a former Marine lieutenant still suffering from the trauma of his war. It can't get better than this, I figured, but it does. Petrie's novel keeps accelerating even as it burrows ever deeper into the dark heart of the new American dream. It is a sterling debut. And yes, the dog is a star."

Dying to Be Famous (2006)
(Jim McNamara, book 3)
David Hiltbrand
"David Hiltbrand rocks!"
