A Novella

By: Will Brink

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

“The story may be short, but it packs a mean punch, like a rock-knuckled uppercut right to the chin. This one's got a wicked, cutthroat edge, and should be right up the literary alley of anyone who enjoys violent, action-packed, hard-boiled thrillers. ” - Best Selling Action-Thriller Author of the Team Reaper series, Mark Allen. "Will Brink is a great writer and storyteller. In Old and Angry, the author’s voice comes through seamlessly in a first person narrative as a rough and tough as nails former Viet Nam vet turned detective turned leave me the hell alone while I enjoy my birthday. But underneath that rawhide exterior is a man set out to do the right thing and get some answers for a young soldier. Put this gritty mystery novella on your must read list. " - Best Selling Thriller Author, CT intelligence specialist, J.T. Patten. “Fans of the Vacation Gone South series and Wink will really enjoy this spin off character who makes Wink look downright soft in comparison.” Paul has seen a lot of death and destruction in his day. Vietnam vet, ex cop, on and off CIA contractor who has been around the block more then a few times. He left the work a long time ago, but the trouble found him at his favorite bar on his 74th birthday. The drunk kid he ejects from the bar that night is found dead the next day and Paul's well honed instincts and experience tell him it's not due to the causes the police claim. What started out as a simple birthday at his favorite bar quickly turns into an investigation of a young dead Army Ranger that exposes connections to the Russian mob, Russian intelligence services and dark forces working right inside the heart of the US not miles from the the White House. Paul is no stranger to working under less than ideal circumstances and austere locations in far away places with no backup and no help if things go FUBAR, but he never expected to be doing it in his own country. Along with his old friend Jake, owner of Jake's Place Bar, retired Vietnam era SEAL, and all around lunatic, Paul and Jake embark on what's likely their last mission. These are old school warriors of a different era, and come hell or high water, they're willing to pay what ever price necessary to get to the bottom of the Ranger's death, and take out whom ever was responsible for it, or die trying.
