About this ebook
Conway Sax is back in a thrilling and heartrending new novel from critically acclaimed, Edgar-nominated author Steve Ulfelder
Conway Sax is a man on a mission-this time in Los Angeles, where he uses his race-driving experience in a desperate bid to rescue Kenny Spoon, a washed-up TV star who's been kidnapped. It's a favor for Kenny's mother Eudora, Conway's dear friend and a fellow member of the Barnburners, his tight-knit maverick AA group.
After hauling Kenny back to Massachusetts, Conway finds himself caught between Eudora and her two sons: Kenny, and Harmon, a cop who resents his talented, troubled half-brother. Each member of the Spoon family distrusts and even despises the others, it seems... and each has a past full of dark secrets that may explain why.
While Conway tries to learn why Kenny was kidnapped and protect him from further harm, a shocking murder devastates this complex, all-too-human family. Conway vows to find the killer and avenge the death, but each clue only points to more suspects.
Things get even more complicated when Conway, separated from his girlfriend Charlene, begins a passionate affair that can't help but cloud his judgment. The more secrets he uncovers, the more danger he's in as this masterfully written page-turner builds to a wrenching confrontation.
"Wolverine Bros. Freight & Storage is tough and full of heart, just like its hero, Conway Sax. It's fast-paced, hard-edged, and so authentic that you can almost feel the grit beneath your fingernails." -Meg Gardiner, New York Times bestselling author of The Shadow Tracer

1 rating1 review
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5From the get-go, Wolverine Bros. Freight & Storage had me hooked. Conway Sax, mechanic, alcoholic and firm believer in vigilante justice is tasked to bring Hollywood has-been Kenny Spoon home to his dying mother, Barnburner Eudora Spoon. Sax's personal code of honor requires him to aid a fellow Barnburner in need, and in this case, Eudora is far more than just a fellow Barnburner - she's his AA mentor as well. Rescuing Kenny from an LA gang Los Bajamaros and returning him to Massachusetts sets a chain of events in motion, including a murder and Sax's version of consequences where "everyone pays". An incredibly fast and satisfying read. I've read Sax from the beginning and author Steve Ulfelder continues to develop this hard, yet interesting and engaging character who tends to make more wrong personal decisions than right ones in the overall scheme of things. After 4 books, the minor characters, Sax's friends, are interesting and give depth to the character.
