Exit 9 (33 page)
Most careers begin with an interview and a handshake. Others require a little … something more. Meet Jake Oliver. The day will come when he's one of the best cleaners in the business, a man skilled at making bodies disappear. At the moment, however, he’s a twenty-two-year-old rookie cop, unaware his life is about to change.
In a burning barn a body is found—and the fire isn't the cause of death. The detectives working the case have a pretty good idea about what went down. But Officer Oliver thinks it’s something else entirely, and pursues a truth others would prefer remain hidden—others who will go to extreme lengths to keep him quiet.

Logan Harper isn't looking for redemption. He just wants to live in peace and forget his troubled past. But one morning, his quiet life is upended when he interrupts the attempted murder of his father's best friend, Tooney. The next thing he knows, Logan is on his way to Los Angeles, searching for Tooney's missing granddaughter and uncovering a sinister plot connected not only to Tooney's past, but also to the boardrooms of corporate America. As the odds stack up against him, Logan must fall back on old skills from the life he'd rather forget. He's made a promise, and the only way to fulfill it is to bring the girl home alive.

What would you do for those precious to you?

The Pull of Gravity
From Brett Battles comes a different kind of novel, one deemed "a mesmerizing thriller of the heart" by Edgar-Award-nominated author Tim Hallinan. It's a story of love, tragedy, and those searching for redemption.
Jay Bradley thought he could leave the Philippines behind. But though he's started a new life with a woman he loves, he's still tormented by questions from his past.
He returns to Angeles City, where he once worked as a papasan watching over his bargirls. On the surface he's there to sell his stake in a bar on the notorious Fields Avenue. In reality he's come back to find Isabel, one of his old dancers and the only person who can answer his questions and quiet his demons.
Because death is seldom an ending, and always haunts those left behind.
