A missing man. A Russian syndicate. And two small town vigilantes way out of their element.

Dexter O'Kane is an antique collector turned reluctant assassin with a complicated marriage and a knack for getting into trouble. When a job sends him to Los Angeles, he thinks some distance from Missouri—and from Mrs. O'Kane—might do him good.

Spoiler: it doesn't.

His old friend Jake Pope asks for help finding his missing father, and Dexter—along with his no-nonsense partner-in-crime-fighting, John Wood—dives headfirst into the seedy underbelly of L.A. Their search leads them to a sketchy personal trainer with ties to the Bratva, a powerful Russian crime syndicate.

As the stakes rise and the bullets fly, Dexter and John realize they might be in over their heads—and that getting back to LeClaire alive might be the hardest job yet.

L.A. Dreams is a fast-paced crime thriller packed with snappy dialogue, explosive action, and two unlikely heroes who never back down—no matter how bad the odds.

*Perfect for fans of Joe R. Lansdale's Hap and Leonard, Craig Johnson's Longmire, and Elmore Leonard's Raylan (Justified).
