About THE THOUSAND DOLLAR FIGHT: A Colt Ryder Thriller

The adrenaline-fuelled excitement continues in The Thousand Dollar Fight, the sensational new novel in J.T. Brannan's bestselling Colt Ryder series, from a thriller writer at the top of his game. Rick Hooper runs a popular bar in London, Ontario. But when a new security company comes to town and offers its services, his once peaceful existence is soon shattered entirely. Pro-Tek wants to take over every bar and nightclub in the city, and is willing to use force to remove the existing security teams and put its own personnel in place. The new bouncers are then free to peddle drugs to the customers, which results in spiralling rates of crime and violence. Rick is forced to let Pro-Tek take over his bar’s security, but is not happy – but his father knows someone who might just be able to help. Jim Hooper asks his old friend Colt Ryder to come to London and help not just his son's business, but the whole town, from the violent influence of the security company, and the organized criminals behind it. Colt agrees, and travels north with his loyal dog Kane, where he confronts Pro-Tek and its army of ferocious bouncers, fighting against all the odds to save London from descending any further into the violence and mayhem which threaten to consume it. The Thousand Dollar Fight is a truly frenetic, breathtaking, all-action thriller that will have you on the edge of your seat, right up until the explosive, earth-shattering climax. Praise for J.T.
