The Pinned Butterfly (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798861718875)

"The Pinned Butterfly is noir of a higher order. Taut, fast-moving, emotional, and filled with surprises. Johnny Mack is a modern-day Robert Stone and this novel is an essential piece of crime fiction." NY Times-bestseller Tod Goldberg, Gangsters Don't Die

An anniversary trip to Thailand. Missing bar girls. A mysterious yacht.

Brent and Sarah Webb arrive on Phuket Island for their tenth anniversary, but something isn't right. Sarah is distracted and moody. Brent is suspicious and anxious. While Sarah recovers from jet lag, Brent, an ex-cop, explores the city of Patong on his own. When he notices something suspicious, he can't help himself: he follows the lead, only to open a Pandora's Box of missing bar girls, disgraced academics, and a sinister ship. Once the investigation hits closer to home, Brent enlists the help of a down-on-his-luck Navy SEAL in search of one last shot at redemption and a law school dropout who's in Thailand to escape her own troubled past. The longer Brent investigates, the darker the secrets he uncovers about his own life - secrets that will test his marriage and forever change him.

Johnny Mack is the pen name for an award-winning writer. This is his first thriller.
