Book details

The explosive action continues in The Thousand Dollar Patient , the sensational new adventure in J.T. Brannan's bestselling Colt Ryder series, from a thriller writer at the top of his game.

Colt Ryder and his loyal canine friend Kane take on the jobs nobody else will. When people can't go to the police, and they've run out of other options, they try and contact the Thousand Dollar Man, and pray he can help them.

Passing through Arizona, Colt is hired by a woman whose boyfriend has gone missing during a business trip south of the border. He accepts the job of finding the man, thinking that it is probably a simple case of an errant, runaway husband.

When his investigation gets underway in Mexico, however, he soon discovers that the job is anything but simple. Instead, he is drawn into a terrifying underworld of kidnap, murder and corruption - crimes that spread their deadly tentacles north from Mexico, into the United States itself.

As he undercovers connections between violent Mexican drug cartels and American hospitals, he discovers crimes far more extensive than the disappearance of a single man; and by threatening to destroy that lucrative business, he becomes a target himself. Marked for death, Colt and Kane must take the fight to the enemy, as they attempt to take down the powerful gangs and their corrupt US partners - permanently.

The Thousand Dollar Patient is a searing, explosive thrill-ride that is guaranteed to keep you reading all night long!
