THE BLUELIGHT SPECIAL:

Landry's back—and THE BLUELIGHT SPECIAL's got him!

Cyril Landry, former Navy SEAL, black ops specialist and hardcore horse racing fan from THE SHOP, is back—and this time he's fighting for the little guy.

When Therese Hill stands up against the monied interests at Dogwood Park to keep herself and her fellow jockeys safe, she's nearly killed in a pile-up that looks like another accident on the track. But this is no accident—and it won't stop there. Can her new friend Landry, using the highly selective and persuasive tools of his trade, help level the playing field?

Critical acclaim for Cyril Landry and THE SHOP:

"A non-stop locomotive ride of a thriller."
—John Lescroart, New York Times bestselling author of DAMAGE

"Riveting!...An exciting, sweeping crime thriller that will linger in your mind for a long time."
—Gayle Lynds, New York Times bestselling author of THE BOOK OF SPIES

TRUE STORY:

Lonnie McVie's husband disappears the night before The All American Futurity. Any fan of the fabled quarter horse race knows it's Mecca for horsemen—the world's first million-dollar race. No horseman in his right mind would take off when his first-ever horse in the All American is favored to win it. The truth is hard to pin down and the lies pile up like discarded Win tickets. It soon becomes clear that the only sure thing is death itself.

Hot Tip:

If you like TRUE STORY, be sure to read J. Carson Black's suspense novel, DARK HORSE.

About the Author

J. Carson Black is the bestselling author of the THE SHOP--a thriller--and three crime novels in the Laura Cardinal series: DARKNESS ON THE EDGE OF TOWN, DARK SIDE OF THE MOON, and THE DEVIL'S HOUR.

A man driving an old car tried to abduct her as a child, following her through an empty Tucson neighborhood. Her friend's mother, who happened to be outside, scared the driver away. Black remembered exactly what the car looked like--a 1955 Chevrolet sedan, orange over white. The sedan makes an appearance in DARKNESS ON THE EDGE OF TOWN, although the victim in the story isn't so lucky.

A Tucson, Arizona native, Black writes about the New West.
