They Left Me For Dead J M Holmes

From award-winning author J. M. Holmes, a tightly-wound tale of passion, murder and greed.


"I'm a civilised man, and I follow the rules. But the rules change when someone tries to kill you. When they left me in that ditch they thought they'd seen the last of me. They should have checked their work."




This hardboiled noir crime novel, set in the arid West Texas scrublands, dives deep into dark, dangerous places populated by a host of seedy and corrupt characters.




Whether fighting to avoid the hordes of Assassin Bugs that have colonized the region, or working to stay one step ahead of drug-dealers, Mafia hitmen and Mexican cartels, our hero is finding life in this sleepy area of the southern US isn't quite as peaceful as appearances suggest.




Featuring a new breed of frontier hero caught in a tangled web of murder, corruption, and betrayal, They Left Me for Dead will draw you in and soon have you sweating along with its hero in the hot, dry Texas Chaparral.
