Ryan Weller Thriller #4
Dark Shadows
Diego Figueroa and his crew are stealing cargo containers on the storm-ravaged island of Puerto Rico. At first, they did it to feed and clothe a desperate population. Now, they’re doing it for profit. Dark Water Research discovers the police are being paid to turn a blind eye to the situation, they call in their troubleshooter, Ryan Weller. When Ryan finds a repainted DWR container about to be shipped off the island, he devises a plan to track it with GPS. However, Diego springs his own trap, a near deadly ambush that leaves a cop wounded and Ryan on the run. There’s only one way for him to stop the thieves and that’s to run headlong into trouble no matter what the consequences.

Should be optioned for a Netflix series of movies
Dark Shadows picks up a short time after the action of Dark Horse, and felt a bit short, compared to previous Ryan Weller thrillers, but is a solid piece of writing by an author who has hit the indie author/publisher scene with impressive competence.
Graver is one of the very best when it comes to giving a reader a vivid picture of settings and actions without losing his brisk pacing and character-driven narrative. I have never visited Haiti or Puerto Rico, have never been at the center of container cargo operations, or crash-landed a helicopter, but it really felt as if I was in all of those places alongside Ryan, and my nerves felt as frazzled as his were as he launched headlong into some very scary situations.
Dark Shadows felt more like a novella as it completed a story arc put in place and explored in the previous two novels. Yet Graver gives it a life of its own. And a hunger for more.
By the time I finished reading the first two Ryan Weller novels – Dark Water and Dark Ship – I purchased #3, and the Box set with #4 - #6.
If you have enjoyed the Evan Graver books, check out R. E. McDermott and the three Tom Duggan novels – and, especially – the Disruption trilogy.
