"Gripping...Willink tells his story in quick blasts of haiku-like writing...with dialogue reminiscent of early David Mamet. Told with a gritty simplicity, this retains a hold on the reader right through to the inevitable tragic climax." —Publishers Weekly
"A crackerjack thriller...You've read this book before, and you've seen the movie, but Willink gives it a nice spin, a reminder of why the theme is timeless." —Booklist

#1 New York Times bestselling author Jocko Willink's fast-paced thriller Final Spin: a story of love, brotherhood, suffering, happiness, and sacrifice.
A story about life.
Johnny...
Shouldn't be in a dead-end job.
Shouldn't be in a dead-end bar.
Shouldn't be in a dead-end life.
But he is.
It's a hamster wheel existence. Stocking warehouse store shelves by day, drinking too much whiskey and beer by night. In between, Johnny lives in his childhood home, making sure his alcoholic mother hasn't drunk herself to death, and looking after his idiosyncratic older brother Arty, whose world revolves around his laundromat job.
Rinse and repeat.
Then Johnny's monotonous life takes a tumble. The laundromat where Arty works, and the one thing that gives him happiness, is about to be sold. Johnny doesn't want that to happen, so he takes measures into his own hands. Johnny, along with his friend, Goat, come up with a plan to get the money to buy the laundromat.
But things don't always go as planned...
A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin's Press
