“Expert prose, brisk pacing, and a complex plot.
But what really makes this first of a series Eidson’s
best yet are the flawed, hurt, and exceptionally sympathetic
central players.”

Ex-DEA Agent
Jack Merchant is living out his precarious retirement
on the docks of Charlestown, Mass., surrounded by the revenge-minded
dealers and punks he used to put away. All he's got is his sloop,
the Lila, but soon enough he gets a visit from the repo man. Except
the repo man's a woman, Sarah Ballard. Her proposition: they've
got a week to track down a spoiled rich couple who've disappeared
with their yacht. Find it, and Merchant can keep the Lila. The trouble
is, they're not the only ones looking... A dark tale with enough
kinks and twists to keep you guessing to the last page, The
Repo is the electrifying new thriller from Bill Eidson, and
the first book in a new series featuring Jack Merchant and Sarah
Ballard.
