Feriyal Adam was raised in the gauntlet of tribulations, but that didn't stop her from carving out a better future for herself. Now she's a reporter, living at least one of her dreams, when the walls of her carefully constructed reality collapse like sandcastles in a tornado. Her contract in the newsroom ends, she loses her mom to a devastating illness, and with these losses her reality shifts into a dark realm of serial killers. Her hopes for security, family and love, end. Alone in this harsh world she decides to prove herself worthy once and for all, by utilising her journalistic abilities to find the serial killer desecrating her community with mutilation. Women are falling prey to his bloodlust daily and Feriyal can no longer stand by and allow the rest of her life to disintegrate. What she didn't anticipate is that she'd be his victim. There's no one left to miss her when she's abducted, no one to notice she's missing. She's got a new deadline, and this time it's a matter of life or death.

Kenny Prince enjoyed the finer things in life - namely cocaine, strippers, and a 1976 Corvette Stingray. But Kenny wound up dead on his couch with two bullet holes in him and a QR code slapped onto the wall above his body. So now it's up to Logan Claybourne to find who did it. Not that Logan gives a rat's ass. He's not a detective. He's a repo man. And if he wants money to fund his unhinged gambling addiction, he's going to have to find the Stingray before the police do. The mystery will take him around the cold and unforgiving streets of Edmonton, Canada's northernmost city, where everyone seems to know Logan's secrets and answers can only be found in the middle of the night. MIDNIGHT DRIVE is the first book in the Logan Claybourne series by Kenneth Price. Set in a world of pawn shops, casinos, and hardscrabble people trying to get by, this novel peeks down the dark alleys we instinctively look away from. Questions around fate and the gears operating in the background of our lives weave through its pages while throughout the rough and tumble streets of Edmonton are tooled into a tale of high-octane crime fiction. This is noir with a V8 engine under the hood.So get in. Shut up. And hold on!
