Leather’s battered hero and his loyal dog power through a gritty thriller about unfinished business (*selected by the i Paper as a Best New Crime and Thriller Read for February 2026*)

PHEW!!!

First, no virtual anything!!! Only an outstanding LIVE narrator, a very likable protagonist and great story. I have started at least 10 books. Even eyeing Harry Potter!
Phew! Close ! Thank you, Mr. Leather. You have great timing. Just too short.

A true underdog storyline

The story is fast passed, with ample twists and turns. If you have ever had a dog in your life, this story is for you. The plight of homeless veterans is highlighted which is much needed. For those following the Spider Shepherd series, familiar characters are included. Well worth the time and money.
