George Sisco's still not convinced a life without crime is all it's cracked up to be... As part of the Massachusetts inmate re-entry program, Dr. Amy Marlow is tasked with getting him back on the right track after another stint behind bars. But George has something else on his mind... When his ex-brother-in-law Louie tries to persuade him to get in on some action, George is hesitant to put his trust in another one of Louie's screwball schemes. But if they can pull it off, this time the payout could be big. And the money could be all George needs to finally break free. But everything starts to unravel before they even get started. The misfit gang George and Louie pull together threaten to derail their plans. And when they're forced to deal with an acquaintance who has a score to settle with George, they have to shift gears to cover their tracks. But it's his blind pursuit of Dr. Marlow that'll turn out to be George's biggest mistake yet. When he finds himself in another mess he's not sure how to fix, he'll have to choose between the beautiful doctor's life and the so-called friends depending on him...

Autorenporträt
Gregory has written over twenty-three books, and is the author of four mystery and crime fiction series, including the Henry Walsh Private Investigator series, the US Marshal Charlie Harlow series, the Joe Sheldon crime series, and the new Jake Horn mysteries. His standalone crime novels include Drag the Man Down, Half Cocked, Danny Womack's .38, Biscayne Boogie, and a number of published short stories.He won his first award as a writer at ten years old, after sending a story to the Providence Journal about his pet husky being shot by a local farmer. The writing most likely wasn't very good, but the fact a young boy's dog was shot (true story!) tugged at the editor's heart strings just enough.His dog, luckily, survived.But that wasn't a paid gig, so years later he ended up in advertising. He eventually became a copywriter, specializing in direct mail and writing fundraising letters to help raise money for animals and children.The first book he wrote was nonfiction, but he quickly realized he wasn't smart enough to be giving anyone advice. He finally decided making up lies for a living would be much more fun.Somehow, he became an author.Raised in Providence, Rhode Island, Gregory lives with his wife, kids, and his dog, Jake, in North Carolina.
