One Way To Live: Adam Cain and the Gypsy-A Thriller
His phone rang at midnight. "When are you going to take care of my problem?" a voice rasped.
"When you take care of mine," the man replied. "And that better happen soon."
The caller wheezed out a single expletive, then voiced his resignation. "Alright. But just to be clear, there can't be any loose ends. The girl dies too."
In the darkest corners of the city, women already victimized are being murdered in the cruelest way possible.
High above, in a luxurious penthouse suite, a young girl is brutalized and forced. Held captive by her own fear.
And in a warehouse on the coast, a stockpile of high-tech weapons grows ever larger. Destination unknown.
Adam Cain and the Gypsy try to unravel the connection between an illegal arms deal, a desperate young woman from the heartland, and a lecherous politician with a penchant for violence.
One man is behind it all, and he may be someone from the Gypsy's past.
A poignant, heart-pounding and gut-wrenching thriller by the author of "The Slater Mysteries"
"A lot of characters in this book, but I think that each person and relationship brought something to the story. I intended for this to be a straight-up thriller, but I seem incapable of not infusing a little romance, humor, and social commentary into everything I write. Because life is never just one thing and neither is my fiction. I hope you enjoy it." T.J. Jones

T.J. Jones has done it again; written a page turner that kept me guessing! I love the characters, and the story line was so engaging and fast moving, I didn’t have any idea how it would end until I got there. Jones has a wonderful way of writing that makes the characters come alive; he does it in this series and in the Slater series. Can’t wait for the next one!

This is TJ Jones most involved book to date. I enjoyed every page of it. Should be a movie directed by Quentin Tarantino. Enjoy that action.

Great Gypsy and Cain Thriller
Lots of action. Many bad guys. Some twists. Never a dull moment. And it is a supper way to live.
