A stern and unyielding judge finds his life threatened by the very criminals he has sentenced, forcing him to navigate a treacherous path where legal power clashes with underworld violence.
Ex-Royal Marine Ezio Trevino is trying to go straight. He and his crew have turned a crumbling Glasgow bar into the city's hottest new spot. But with debts piling up, a rival gang closing in, and his mother’s medical bills hanging over him, Ezio is forced back into the life he tried to escape. Their plan? Intercept a hidden fortune from an incoming weapons shipment. But in Glasgow’s underworld, nothing stays buried—not money, not enemies, and not the grief Ezio thought he’d left behind. Can he pull off one last job and keep his crew alive—or will the past, and its ghosts, drag them all down?Zum Buch

Gabriela Menchaca and Edwin Saucedo are hardworking, undocumented employees at the Detmer Foods chicken plant in Springdale, Arkansas, just a stone’s throw from the trailer park where they’ve lived together for seven years. While dealing with personal tragedies of their own, the young couple endures the brutal, dehumanizing conditions at the plant in exchange for barebones pay. When the plant manager, Luke Jackson, fires Edwin to set an example for the rest of the workers—and to show the higherups that he’s ready for a major promotion—Edwin is determined to get revenge on Luke and his wife, Mimi, a new mother who stays at home with her six-month-old son. Edwin’s impulsive action sets in motion a devastating chain of events that illuminates the deeply entrenched power dynamics between those who revel at the top and those who toil at the bottom. From the nationally bestselling and Edgar Award–winning author of Don’t Know Tough and Ozark Dogs comes another edge-of-your-seat noir thriller that exposes the dark, bloody heart of life on the margins in the American South and the bleak underside of a bygone American Dream. “Taut, harrowing, and charged with profound insight, Broiler pushes four unforgettable characters to the brim. What happens when hard work isn’t enough? Exploring class, ambition, mobility, and desire, Eli Cranor uses bolts of linguistic electricity to show how the things we want can sometimes blind us.”—Danya Kukafka, author of Notes on an ExecutionZum Buch
