Blood Thing
«“Hankins’s latest offering is big on suspense…A Blood Thing is the type of page-turner that you’ll want to tell everyone you know about as soon as you turn the final page.” —The Real Book Spy “Plenty of sharp turns and tense moments…Calculated, intense, and vengeful.” —Novelgossip “A Blood Thing by James Hankins is a suspenseful thriller that puts a family on the edge of ruin and explores how far siblings will go to protect each other…Hankins doles out family secrets…at exactly the right pace.” —Criminal Element “Defining what makes James’s writing so fine is a tough task…But this book is such a perfect craft that it may be his best novel yet.

Never trust a blackmailer.
Vermont’s promising young governor, Andrew Kane, is at another public meet-and-greet when a stranger from the crowd slips him a cell phone and whispers, “Keep this with you…keep it secret…you’re going to need it after the arrest.”
Hours later, Andrew’s brother, Tyler, is taken into custody—framed for the brutal murder of a young woman—and Andrew discovers there is only one way to free him: answer the mysterious phone and agree to a blackmailer’s demands. All the governor has to do to make it all go away is compromise everything he stands for and grant a full pardon to a convicted felon. With no better option, he complies. Which is his first mistake…because the stranger isn’t through with him. He has another little condition. Then another. And another. And Andrew has no choice but to play along until he can find a way out of this personal and political nightmare. But he isn’t prepared for what he will face, or how far he will have to go to save his brother and keep his family together.
