Forgiveness Dies by J.J. Hensley is the third book in the “Trevor Galloway” thriller. Publisher: Down & Out Books, coming October 14, 2019.

Upon being released after two years of incarceration in a psychiatric facility, former narcotics detective and unlicensed PI Trevor Galloway has no idea how to begin picking up the pieces of his shattered life. Having lost the woman he loved and exacting revenge upon those responsible, he is irreparably broken, heavily medicated, and unemployable.

When former Secret Service agent Nick Van Metre knocks on Trevor Galloway’s door, the last thing he expected was a job offer. However when the head of Metal Security hands Galloway a stack of photos and asks for his assistance with investigating a series of threats against a controversial presidential candidate, the former detective is stunned.

Galloway initially takes the case, but eventually has to question his own sanity after he reports an encounter with intruders who seem to have left no trace in his home. When Nick Van Metre turns up dead and an attack is carried out against Dennis Hackney, the former detective with a history of extreme violence becomes the focal point of multiple investigations.

Galloway pulls clues from photos and searches for answers while dodging bullets in Pittsburgh and Savannah. Get set for a mystery told at a breakneck pace, with each of the chapters being linked to photograph in roll of film. Look for the hints. Watch for the signs. Trevor Galloway doesn’t trust himself. Can you trust him? The answers won’t be revealed until the final photo is flipped.

This was a non-stop, fast-paced action-packed drama that immediately had me immersed in all aspects of this riveting and complex tale of suspense and intrigue where betrayal and human foibles are the core in this well-written novel.

A complication of facts and falsehoods permeate this intensifying drama from beginning to the end and one wonders how this will all play out. The chase is on in this pick and roll game of cat and mouse never knowing which way the answers were going to go.

With a deeply-flawed character, the author knows how to bring him to life and give him the one thing he needs in order to make sense of the hand that he was dealt and that is what you’ll find in the pages of this hard-hitting thriller that will keep you on your toes as you fight the fight and prepare for the outcome. The ending is a perfect segue for the next book in this terrific series.
