Publisher's summary

A gripping thriller from Lloyd Devereux Richards author of TikTok sensation, Stone Maidens

He's in too deep… And almost out of time.

Martin Gabriel is a runner for Ben. He runs errands. He runs deliveries. And now he is running for his life…

When a deal goes wrong, Martin realizes Ben isn’t the legitimate businessman he thought he was.

He flees before Ben catches up with him, unaware that Ben’s criminal network and the FBI are also on his tail.

No longer a runner, but still on the run.

Is Martin fast enough to get away from his past?

Well-conceived and told story

The performance is overwrought and the performance of women's voices almost offensive. The story is great and deserves much better. I really cared about Martin. The author's attention to detail makes this story feel very real. Recommend.

Shocking

This book was fantastic, characters are wonderful, story is even better. I got the chills a few times, it left me on my toes. I can usually predict which way a book is going and this one really kept me on the hook.

The Runner has drama, suspense, and characters I can identify with!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book, as the main character was just an ordinary guy searching for a pathway to money and success in life. He gets in over his head with some serious criminals and murder and mayhem cause him to run…taking both his sister and his best friend into danger. Great story. Highly recommend!
