This was my first book by Josh Boldt and my first journey with Mack Abbott. Little did I know that Moneymaker is a prequel to Slurry and how Mack ends up in Kentucky. As soon as I finished, I wanted to see what was next for Mack. Lucky for me, no waiting!!
Set in 1997, Mack Abbott, Navy Veteran and surveillance specialist, has an unknown employer who wants him to watch and follow a drug shipment that is coming into Savanah. Sounds easy enough, right? No guns, just keep an eye on it, follow it and well….. you will see. Have you ever walked into a big spider web, and you can’t get it off? That is exactly what happens to Mack when he gets to Savanah. The longer he stays and watches the more he becomes entangled in a web of secrets and lies and money.
This is a gritty and seedy crime thriller that is filled with morally grey characters and takes you back in time where a criminal underbelly hides in a beautiful Southern town. Boldt’s prose both immerses and pulls the reader along with perfect pacing always wondering who can Mack trust? Who are his allies and foes; and what will happen next for Mack?
