The Bradys on the Road

A killer on the loose. A drummer who vanished into thin air. Two detectives who refuse to quit.

Old King Brady has seen every shade of criminal the city can produce—but Sam Newman is something else entirely. The man is everywhere and nowhere, a ghost who leaves forged checks and shattered lives in his wake, and one very real corpse cooling in a small-town banker's office.

Brady doesn't believe in easy answers. The evidence points straight at Newman, but something doesn't sit right. A murdered banker. A missing knife. A young woman who swears her man is innocent with the kind of certainty that can't be faked. And now a smooth-talking stranger has appeared in the wilderness, claiming to be an ally—but carrying secrets he hasn't offered to share.

Deep in the mountains, down rivers that don't appear on any map, Brady and his partner Harry close in on their quarry. Every lead doubles back. Every witness has an agenda. Every ally might be an enemy in disguise.

Newman is clever, reckless, and running. But Brady is relentless.

The deeper the Bradys push into the wild country, the more the case shifts beneath their feet. Because the strangest thing about this drummer isn't what he's done.

It's what someone else is doing to make sure he takes the blame.

Can the Bradys unmask the real villain before an innocent man is hunted down—and the true killer walks free forever?
