A carnival turned battleground. A veteran with nothing left to lose. And a cold-blooded crew tearing a path through fire, gun smoke, and shattered Ferris wheels. In the aftermath of an explosive attack, one man stands between a violent uprising and total collapse.

TRUE CARNEY blends grit, atmosphere, and nonstop action into a relentless ride.

James Blade writes hard-edged thrillers packed with atmosphere, grit, and explosive tension. A lifelong fan of crime fiction and noir cinema, he brings a cinematic eye to every story—where broken places, flawed people, and moral gray zones collide.
