Tear It Down

Description

In the fourth edge-of-your-seat adventure from bestselling author Nick Petrie, Peter Ash pursues one case - and stumbles into another - in the City of the Blues. Peter Ash came home from fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan with only one souvenir: crippling claustrophobia due to PTSD. He always needs to be on the move, to have a purpose. So when war correspondent Wanda Wyatt is in trouble, Peter jumps at the chance to go to her aid. He arrives in Memphis to find that a truck has been driven into Wanda's house. Someone is clearly determined to drive her from her home by any means necessary. But why? Before he can investigate, Peter finds himself held at gunpoint. Caught between gangsters and whoever is threatening Wanda, he will need his special skills more than ever if he's going to save innocent lives...

Nick Petrie received his MFA in fiction from the University of Washington, won a Hopwood Award for short fiction, and his story 'At the Laundromat' won the 2006 Short Story Contest in the Seattle Review. His debut novel featuring ex-soldier Peter Ash, The Drifter, won numerous awards including the International Thriller Writers Award for Best First Novel in 2017.
