PARALLEL LIES

parallel lies
(paperback)
It starts with a vengeance, and stops at nothing.

Get ready for the ride of your life, as Ridley Pearson puts suspense on a whole new track. There are no limits, there are no rules, and there are no stops.

Ridley Pearson's latest novel brings together all his incomparable talents and more in a riveting story about Umberto Alvarez, a grieving man whose quest in life is to bring down the railroad company he blames for the death of his wife and children three years earlier – no matter who gets in the way. Peter Tyler is an ex-cop looking to redeem himself after being suspended from the force. Now an investigator with the National Transportation Safety Board, he will stop at nothing to catch the elusive Alvarez.

But the case is more complicated than it seems. As Tyler's investigation proceeds, it becomes apparent that Alvarez is no terrorist – in fact, the more Tyler investigates, the closer he comes to the real truth.

Packed with action, laced with romance, brimming with heart-stopping suspense, and marked by the intelligence and humanity that make Ridley Pearson's novels stand apart from others in the genre, Parallel Lies will give reviewers and readers yet another reason to hail him as "the best damn thriller writer on the planet."
