BoonieRats (BoonieRats - Jake Olson Adventures Book 1) (English Edition) [Kindle-editie] beoordelingen het boek quotes

From the flying bridge of the Princess Rebecca, with a brilliant sunrise at their backs, attorney Jake Olson and his biker brother Frank Schroeder witness an apparent drug deal gone bad. Alerting the others below, they give chase and capture the runaway speedboat holding a dead man and two duffel bags of marijuana. They stow the weed, scuttle the boat, and then go back to rescue the survivor. The man they fish out of the drink offers the marijuana as a token of his appreciation. They’d planned on keeping it anyway. But joining into the lucrative trade also seems both doable and enticing; their out-of-work club brothers need the income, and they’d all be earning equal shares. And so, even though they lack criminal experience, they utilize skills learned in Vietnam to forge a deal and make preparations. There’s more to smuggling than they’d counted on, though, creating the need for more men. Jake usually defends those who are willing and able to pay his ample fees; but not long ago he did pro bono work for their newest club member. So they decide to recruit a few down-on-their-luck vets in trouble, knowing that springing a man from jail is a great way to earn his loyalty. Other books in the series: One Lowly Angel, No Former Brothers. All are full-length stand-alone novels, but BoonieRats also explains how this assortment of young war veterans, fueled by testosterone and post-traumatic stress disorder, came into being.
