“Hooked me from the first chapter.” —Amazon Reviewer Tony Gonzalez never planned to raise his younger brother. But when Joey has nowhere else to go, Tony takes him in—and pulls him into Nate’s orbit: a desert compound built on guns, weed, and apocalyptic dreams. Just down the road, Katie Harrison is desperate to get out of Cordero. Tony wants the same thing. Together, they may have one shot at escape—if Tony can keep Joey alive long enough. For fans of Elmore Leonard, Don Winslow, and S. E. Hinton, Cordero is a lean California noir—fast, immersive, and unforgiving. ERIC WEISS is a screenwriter whose AFI thesis script became the feature film Wicked, starring Julia Stiles and premiering at the Sundance Film Festival. He later co-wrote Bongwater and Buffalo Soldiers, starring Joaquin Phoenix. Cordero is his debut novel.
