It is an obsession that has haunted Nick Malick for seven years – to avenge the murder of his young son. In his gut Malick knows who did it. But the psychopath is in prison for another crime, scheduled to be released in a year. All Malick has to do is wait…and survive.
The tragedy cost Malick his marriage and his career. Now he scrapes by as a PI in the blue-collar town of Cain City, West Virginia. His latest case tasks him with finding a young woman gone missing. Seems simple enough. But when his investigation exposes a link between a corrupt police force and a drug gang from Detroit, Cain City explodes. And Malick finds himself dead center.
Turns out when there’s no one to trust and a whole lot of people want you dead, survival and revenge aren’t so easy.
Cash City is Jonathan Fredrick’s debut novel, heralding a tough new voice in crime fiction.
I enjoyed it was a great read I enjoyed it was a great read. Going to start to follow and read other books from the offer
Five Stars So funny and smart and kept me on the edge of my seat!!!
Newly Minted Classic Wow! Frederickâs first novel is a tour de force. The dialogue sparkles and snaps like Elmore Leonardâs. The characters breathe and bleed (and could use some breath mints). Both the protagonist, Nick Malick, and the fictional West Virginia town of Cain City where the novel is set are beautiful, damaged and haunting. Reading the book felt like having drinks with Leonard, Dashiell Hammett and Walter Mosley. Cash City is a new classic of hard-boiled detective fiction.
