    About this ebook

    Every day, there is a war being waged on America's borders - a cat and mouse war in the high desert of West Texas between Mexican emigrants and the people sworn to protect these borders. This war has its casualties, none greater than ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) Top Sergeant Mike Hardwood a 24-year veteran border patrol officer whose questionable methodology blurs the line between legality and corruption. His optimism has long since been chipped away by his tour of duty in the desert, where fighting crime by the book can get you killed, and getting the job done often requires Hardwood and his colleagues to break the laws they are empowered to enforce.
    A gritty, realistic drama set in the malevolent world of human trafficking, Greenhorn shadows Sergeant Hardwood as he tests the resolve of idealistic rookie Pam Horn who has to prove herself to her fiercely charismatic superior. Over the next 24 hours, Pam will be pulled deeper and deeper into the ethical mire of Hardwood's logic as both officers put their lives and careers on the line to serve their conflicting notions of justice.

    The Perfect Edition

    We are a group, a small group, of like minded people who want to help writers who have the talent but not the means to publish. Digital technology has revolutionised the publishing industry and we want to give a voice to authors who have something to say but always struggled to find someone who supports them. Think of us like a very small and dusty bookstore, in a small town near the sea, bathed in beautiful morning light. Hear the 'dlong' as you open our door and smell the coffee brewing. Imagine a friendly smile and receiving helpful advice when asked. That would be us. Sorry about the dust. Coffee?

      After “The End”

      Oct 10, 2022

      I walked down the road with a hunched back and a wet cigarette in my mouth—the fire had died a while back. My hands were tucked into the pockets of my jacket, and my hair fell over my face, limiting my sight. But I wasn’t really seeing where I was go
