by Leigh Barker
Across the bridge on the Upper East Side, a black guy the size of a dumper truck squeezed his gut in behind the wheel of a twenty-year-old white panel van and crashed it into gear.
He wiped sweat from his face on his blue overalls straining drum-skin tight over his arms and looked back over his shoulder at the four fifty-gallon fuel drums. But all he saw was the cell phone and block of Semtex wedged between them.
For the first time since he’d taken the cash for this, he began to wonder if it was worth the risk.
Too late now.
He nosed the van into the downtown traffic and prayed no fool ran into him.
Enjoy this book? You can make a big difference
Reviews are the most powerful tools in my arsenal when it comes to getting attention for my books. Much as I’d like to, I don't have the financial muscle of a New York publisher. I can't take out full page ads in the newspaper or put up posters in the subway.
(Not yet, anyway).
But I do have something much more powerful and effective than that, and it's something that those publishers would kill to get their hands on.
A committed and loyal bunch of readers.
Honest reviews of my books help bring them to the attention of other readers.
If you’ve enjoyed this book I would be very grateful if you could spend just five minutes leaving a review (it can be as short as you like).
Thank you very much
