The debut rip-roaring, high-octane, and Missouri-sized crime series from Ryan J. Pelton, featuring newbie assassins Dexter O'Kane and John Wood.

Six months earlier, Dexter O'Kane buries his wife and child after a tragic car accident. While he mourns the loss of his family and hangs onto the threads of a failing antique collecting business. Dexter and his best friend John Wood witness a murder in their hometown of LeClaire, Missouri.

The local police of LeClaire aren't able to stop the serial killer as bodies pile up. In a chance encounter with a mysterious woman, Dexter and John are offered a business opportunity, which requires taking matters into their own hands. 

Amidst losing his reason for living Dexter must discover a new normal. He must find a part of himself laying dormant. Will Dexter be able to walk the line of love, loss, and suffering, while stopping a killer… or die trying? 

Hired Gun is chockfull of mystery, laughs, heart, and butt-kicking adventure. Dexter and John are a welcomed duo into the canon of crime novels.  

For fans of: Joe R. Lansdale (Hap and Leonard), Elmore Leonard (Raylan Givens- Justified), Craig Johnson (Longmire).

What are others saying?

"Warning…when starting this book make sure you don't have anywhere you need to be or anything you need to do because you won't want to stop reading until you've finished it all." -Jackie Bryant (Indie Book Reviewers)
