Description
Roy Cady's life is a ticking time bomb. With cancer in his lungs and no one to live for, he's sent on an assignment that feels like a death trap. But after a violent confrontation, Roy finds himself mostly alive - with the help of a beaten-up woman who's managed to survive her ordeal. As they make their getaway from New Orleans to Galveston, Texas, Roy makes a crucial decision: to take this stranger with him on the run. The woman's frightened eyes hold a spark of defiance that changes everything for Roy. Now, he must confront his own mortality and decide what it means to live - or die trying. This gripping novel is a tense, hard-boiled thriller that explores the darkest corners of human nature. With its breakneck pace and unexpected twists, Galveston will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
