Rio Youers combines vengeance and deceit, love and bullets, secrets, and twists in this high-octane action thriller with a vibrant emotional core.

Brody Ellis is short on luck and even shorter on cash to buy the medication his sister Molly needs.

Desperate, he robs a convenience store, but on the way out, he bumps into a young woman and loses his wallet. Just when he expects the cops to arrive, the phone rings. It’s Blair Mayo—the woman he bumped into—and she’s got the missing billfold.
Brody will get it back, but only if he does her a favor: steal her late mother’s diamonds from her wicked stepmom. But when he gets to the house, he finds a gruesome crime scene—and a security camera. Brody knows he’s been framed.

Back home, the terrified young man gets another call. The police won’t get the incriminating video footage, Blair says. Instead, her daddy, the notorious mobster Jimmy Latzo, will exact his own kind of revenge.

Brody and Molly realize that they’ve become pawns in a mysterious game—one that involves a notorious enforcer named Lola Bear who brutally crossed paths with Jimmy Latzo twenty-six years before. . . a ghost from the past who is intimately connected to their lives.

As the sole narrator of this audiobook, Jim Meskimen’s range dazzles, and his attention to detail makes this action-packed story full of twists heartfelt and memorable. To pay for his sister Molly’s medication, Brody robs a store, and unbeknownst to him, he’s been observed. The theft puts him in an impossible situation with the Mafia, prompting him and Molly to run. The siblings begin a perilous journey on their own but find help in the unlikeliest of places. Molly’s slower, intentional speech contrasts with shouted expletives during fast-paced fights. The small and detached voice of a neglected child highlights a series of cataclysmic events, and a voice that cracks with fear emphasizes the ever-present danger. Meskimen transitions between ages, accents, and emotions seamlessly. A.L.C. � AudioFile
