Four days. One runaway girl. And an old man who should already be dead. Old School was supposed to be finished. Washed up. Done. Then Pigtails crashes into his life-smart-mouthed, fearless, hunted, and carrying a past full of men who wanted to own her. She needs out.
New papers. New country. New life. And she needs it fast. Las Vegas isn't forgiving, and neither are the people tracking her. What starts as a simple escape plan turns into a violent, nerve-shredding race through casinos, back hallways, cheap motels, and desert highways-shadowed by predators who never miss a step. Old School knows how this world works. He's lived it, bled in it, and buried too many people he loved because of it.
But this time, he isn't running for himself. He's running to get Pigtails free. As the chase tightens and the body he's wearing starts to fail, Old School discovers something dangerous: redemption doesn't come quietly, and love doesn't ask permission. Sometimes it shows up wearing combat boots, chewing gum, and daring you to be better than you ever were. Old School and Pigtails is a hard-boiled crime novel with a bruised heart-about survival, sacrifice, and the kind of love that shows up when you least deserve it and refuses to leave. Because sometimes four days is enough to change everything.
