Description

The first Callie and Cash thriller is now available in trade paperback!

For fans of Scott Turow, Lee Child, and Raymond Chandler

“Weissbourd has created an entire genre—Seattle Noir… I devoured the novel in a single night and I think you will, too.” —Jacob Epstein, writer and executive story editor, Hill Street Blues

Celebrated restaurateur Callie James is stunned when her estranged ex-husband, French investigative reporter Daniel Odile-Grand, strolls into her restaurant on what could have been any Seattle evening. After fourteen years, the story he tells is even more unlikely than his sudden appearance. As she throws him out into the darkness, her nightmare begins. Daniel is deliberately hit by a car, hurled through the front window of her restaurant—broken, bloody and unconscious…

Reluctantly, Callie hides him. Returning to her restaurant, she is greeted by two assassins insisting that she produce Daniel or pay deadly consequences. Overwhelmed, and hopelessly out of her depth, Callie hires the only man she knows who can help her: Cash Logan. Callie can’t imagine relying on Cash, a soldier of fortune… and her former bartender, a man she had arrested for smuggling ivory through her restaurant two years earlier, a man who still hasn’t forgiven her. 

After a devastating attack on her restaurant, with danger in plain sight, Callie and Cash face kidnappers, murderers, weapons dealers, and treachery at every turn. Ultimately, Callie is forced to change— to become authentically self-aware—with stunning consequences.

Advance Praise

"A woman gets in touch with her inner action hero in this bracing thriller... as one character toasts, 'Bravo, Callie James.'"—Kirkus Reviews

"His skill as a writer is obvious and there's a level of polish present in these pages you don't find with less experienced authors... Danger in Plain Sight sets the stage well for Burt Weissbourd to have an impressive run with this character and he will undoubtedly attract a growing audience with each new additional entry in the series."—Hollywood Digest

"One of the most accomplished elements of this highly entertaining novel is the way that the action hinges on the emotional and interpersonal arc of the story rather than the plot twists themselves... it's Callie's relationships with the central figures, particularly Cash... that give the story its realistic and heart-stopping impact."—Readers' Favorite

"Weissbourd delivers a polished page-turner about terrorism, money laundering, and the price of sins rooted in avarice...Tart dialogue, explosive set pieces and a dexterous narrative style that favors velocity over exposition add to the book's appeal...Thrillers may be a dime a dozen but memorable characters deserve a longer half-life, so here's hoping Callie and Cash make a welcome return soon."—BlueInk Review

"An inventive thriller whose unconventional heroine learns how to live again."—Foreword Clarion Review
