Pigeon-Blood Red by Ed Duncan
4.0
adventurous mysterious tense fast-paced
Loveable characters: Complicated

I really liked this one! Awesome thriller debut by Ed Duncan! 👏🏻 This story grabbed me from start to finish!! The build-up was executed smoothly, and then bam — the chase — through the streets of Honolulu had my heart racing! Amid the action and suspense, a few shenanigans slipped in and gave me a good laugh.

💎Rico, a fearsome figure in the underworld is sent to track down and reclaim his gangster boss’s stolen goods! This is the chase that takes Rico from the streets of Chicago to Hawaii. 
The characters were all great, however, Rico stole the show!! He’s that “bad guy” you can’t help but like — funny, sharp, clever and confident. I’m really looking forward to seeing more of him in book 2!

🎧 The narration was fantastic too and made it such a fun, engaging listen. If you’re into thrillers with action, perfect pacing, and a memorable “villain,” definitely check this one out!! 

🖤 Thank you @ricostays @bookpublicityservices for the physical copy of your book and the ALC! It was a pleasure reading and listening to your debut! 🖤
