The Hustle Rob Cornell

Three years after the case that changed Ridley Brone forever, he has cobbled together a life he can deal with, working as a PI out of the office above his karaoke bar. Then Eddie Arndt walks in.


He wants Ridley to investigate his family's murder-suicide from twenty years ago. But to Ridley, it doesn't sound like there's much to investigate. He passes on the case until he receives a peculiar phone call.


Cryptic, vulgar, and disturbing. the caller threatens the one thing most precious to Ridley. Something very few even know about.


Ridley uses Eddie's case as a distraction from the continued harassment by the strange caller. But when Ridley learns Eddie has a caller of his own who claims to be his family's real killer, Ridley can draw only one conclusion...they're both getting conned.


The search for who's hustling them and why leads Ridley down the twisted trails of both their pasts. What he discovers will force him to question every assumption, and lead him to one hard truth...


The easiest targets are those with the most to lose.
