About this ebook

It’s Henry’s first big case as a licensed private investigator. If he’s not careful, it could be his last…


One Sunday morning, John Thompson went out for a ride on his bike. He never made it home.


Was his death really just a freak accident?


That’s the question ex-wife, Angela Thompson, has for the Sheriff’s Office. But for some reason they refuse to investigate further…She'd been told by a mutual friend that if anyone can get to the truth, it’s a man named Henry Walsh. He’d only recently aced the Florida private investigator’s exam and paid his one-hundred-sixty-seven dollar fee. But even if the ink’s still wet on his business cards, he’s ready for his first big client.


At first, he’s reluctant to take the case. The evidence is quite thin. But Henry’s a headstrong, straight-shooter. He’ll take his chances.


And he could use the work.


With help from his friend and ex-cop Alexandria “Alex” Jepson, the two start to dive into the investigation.


Questions about the victim’s past soon rise to the surface. With his shady business dealings, an ex-wife, a dead wife, and the young widow he left behind… the list of suspects only grows.


When a head-on collision threatens Henry and Alex’s lives, it becomes dangerously clear someone will do whatever it takes to stop their investigation. And as they find themselves getting closer to the truth, the deadlier it all becomes…

The Last Ride is the second book in the Henry Walsh Private Investigator Series and is an intriguing read. I really enjoyed this private investigator crime thriller. Accident or murder? As someone new to the job, PI Henry Walsh takes a chance on a case brought to him by an ex-wife/business partner of the deceased. This story is well written and engaging, with twists and turns, danger, suspense, and intrigue. I am looking forward to reading more books in this series.
