Dead and Gone - Trunk 8

Hugo Lopez should never have taken a job with the cartel.

The man can't pull the trigger. Now after engineering the takeover of the illegal drug market from Texas all the way to Miami, Hugo wants out.

But nobody leaves the cartel alive.

Hugo turns to the only person he can trust, Dennis Trunk.

Trunk turns to the man who was his mentor when he started his criminal life, Walter Johnson. Walter leaves the safety of his retirement in Rio to help out the man he thinks of as his second son.

Can Trunk, Walter, former sniper Tommy, and gun dealer Denise get Hugo out alive? Can they use Hugo's latest plan for cartel expansion to help him escape? California is the largest market in the country and the next jewel in the crown.

On a bus from Amarillo, Texas a young woman named Rachel is escaping her abusive drug dealing boyfriend. She stole all his money and his cocaine. She is headed to New Orleans and intends to use the money and drugs to attend nursing school. But the boyfriend has other plans. He will kill her if he finds her. Trunk is quietly traveling to New Orleans trying to avoid the police. In his bag are fake passports, pre-paid debit cards, guns, and three bombs, enough evidence to put him on death row after a recent explosion.

Sometimes bad luck is tied to a process and it won't stop until the process ends.

It's a lesson Trunk will learn the hard way.

Several years ago, as violence against his community escalated, Chandler suckered Trunk into a bet he couldn't win. As a result, Trunk spent weeks giving weapons training to nearly one hundred members of the LGBTQ community in Miami, Florida. While he was there he picked up a missing persons job too. Will the case come back to haunt him or help him?

Follow master criminal Dennis Trunk on his most challenging job yet.

Trunk, a dangerous man for desperate times.
