American Drifter by Heather Graham and Chad Michael Murray was a very pleasant find.
The novel is about River, an American war veteran battling PTSD while visiting and touring Rio De Janeiro. River has been staying in a local hostel and has been befriended by the owner of the hostel, the hostel maid and a local man happy with just getting by.
River is afflicted with flashbacks and nightmares, while trying to enjoy his time in Rio De Janeiro in the best ways that he can.
River becomes enamored with a local, mysterious, beautiful young woman Natal while running afoul of a local drug kingpin.
American Drifter is an enjoyable crime thriller that keeps the reader engaged and is an excellent, fun novel to read for enjoyment.
The ending comes along with a touching surprise that is neither unbelievable or contrived.
Very recommended.
