Introduction

Lou Malloy learns of his sister's death right before he is released from prison, having served 15 years for the theft of $15 million from an Indian casino. He wants two things: to keep the $15 million, which no one has been able to find, and to track down and punish whoever killed his sister.


Lou Malloy teams up with Hilary Kelly, a private investigator. In no time, Lou has found the hidden $15 million, recovered guns and ammunition hidden with the money, and murdered two low-level mobsters and fed them to the crocodiles. 

As the body count rises, the story grows more complex and his sister's death becomes more mysterious.  

"J. Frank James did a very nice job constructing a fast moving plot for Dead Money Run. It is intriguing and thrilling... Hold on to whatever it is that you're sitting on as you read this story, because James is about to take you on a wild ride." - Reviewed by Red City Review
 
"Dead Money Run is a hard-boiled thriller. It is a book of short chapters and almost unrelenting excitement as Lou and Hillary Kelly avoid cops, kill mobsters, and try to unravel the mystery of who killed Lou's sister and why." - Reviewed by Wally Wood at BookPleasures.com
 
"Fans of James Ellroy and Elmore Leonard are going to love James' ingenious capers, devious characters and wry humor. The entire book goes down like a strong yet smooth shot of bourbon." - Reviewed by BestThrillers.com

"Dead Money Run by J. Frank James is a pure adrenalin rush from the very beginning. Yes, it is very violent with some strong language, but filled with excitement that keeps the reader wanting to know what comes next." - Reviewed by Paul Johnson for Readers' Favorite
