Hardcore criminal Tau has always liked to be his own boss. When he is recruited to change the course of a future election, he comes to relish the opportunity despite his initial reservations. Determined to make his name in the world of journalism, Simon is willing to go to any length, even if it means pushing a false narration. Gedeon, an ex-special agent, is ready to destroy the last vestige of democracy on behalf of a secret society. Each of these individuals considers themselves the makers of others\u2019 destiny until the fate reveals their real place. Action is in abundance, and there\u2019s loads of human drama: from Simon\u2019s senseless, greedy pursuit of success to Gedeon\u2019s relentless struggle for domination. Readers will be kept off balance throughout, and the relentless plot twists make for a satisfyingly unpredictable read. The third-person omniscient narration alternates with the protagonists\u2019 first-person perspectives, putting the reader inside the characters\u2019 heads. Nuth is skilled when it comes to drawing layered, emotionally astute characters. Tau and Simon are deeply and insightfully portrayed, and so are other major and minor characters, including Gedeon, B, Brandon, and Leroy. While this is obviously a character-driven tale, it\u2019s the unique plot and skilled execution that make the novel so effortlessly immersive. The shocking, satisfying ending packs a hefty punch. Readers won\u2019t be able to put this one down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>NAILS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>M.D. Nuth<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/NAILS-M-D-Nuth-ebook\/dp\/B0BDXRTCPB\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/NAILS-M-D-Nuth-ebook\/dp\/B0BDXRTCPB\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Buy now<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Crimson Cloak Publishing<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pub date September 11, 2022<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ISBN \u200e 978-1681607641<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Price $13.99 (USD) Paperback, $0.00 Kindle edition<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A twisted and darkly gripping thriller\u2026 Nuth\u2019s latest novel offers a grand-scale narrative that fuses elements of political fiction with crime thriller and human drama.
