Backstory

Autor William L. Myers, Jr.
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 6 iun 2022
Hunting one killer—he finds another—in the mirror In the aftermath of his wife's apparent suicide, Jackson Robert Hunter wakes up outside a bar with a badly battered head and no memory. Revelations convince Jackson that his wife's death wasn't a suicide, but a murder, and he sets out to find the killer. While hunting the villain and struggling with his amnesia, Jackson discovers that his own backstory is a dark one, littered with broken hearts and dead bodies: a wife he betrayed; a lover he abandoned; a squad of crooked cops he double-crossed; and a city that lives in fear of his name. Jackson's odyssey takes him from a small town in Kansas to Philadelphia, then back cross-country to Las Vegas. Along the way he encounters a sister he didn't know he had, a niece he failed to save, and a mentor ready to lead Jackson down the darkest of paths. Finally, at the end of his journey, Jackson discovers that it's not another man he's been running to, or from, but his own damning deeds, and the paradoxical redemption they might bring. A Unique Blend: Perfect for fans of The Bourne Identity as well as fans of Gone Girl

Praise for William L. Myers, Jr. "[In Backstory ,] Myers has deftly composed a twisty puzzle of a thriller that will keep you intrigued until its revelatory conclusion." Raymond Benson, New York Times best-selling author "In Backstory , Myers delivers big time." Alan Russell, best-selling author "A slow burn thriller that's full of perfectly dark mood and unforgettable characters. Fans of Dennis Lehane and Lou Berney will love Backstory . You won't be able to put it down!" Matthew Farrell, best-selling author "With sharp prose, richly drawn characters, and a briskly paced, intricate plot, Myers' Backstory delivers a riveting tale of murder, missteps, and memory. A tense psychological thriller that won't let you go until the very last page. Backstory is a must read for fans of psychological suspense." Roberta Gately, author of the Jessie Novak mystery thriller series "William Myers's riveting new novel is not just a crackerjack legal thriller, it is also a wrenching portrayal of a whole range of father-daughter relationships, showing how they can damage, how they nourish, how they go dangerously off track. A story not to be missed." William Lashner, New York Times best-selling author "[In] Myers's impressive debut . . . the gripping plot builds to an ending that's a complete shocker." Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) "About as close as one can get to . . . an exciting train ride, short of purchasing a pricey Acela ticket. Fast-paced, tightly written, and inspired by a real-life railroad disaster." The Big Thrill "Talk about a mystery . . . I just couldn't put it down." Fresh Fiction
