Nick Petrie in conversation with Brynn Teaman

Books & Company welcomes Nick Petrie back to Oconomowoc to discuss his newest installment in the Peter Ash series, The Dark Time. Petrie will be in conversation with Brynn Teaman, a Books & Company bookseller and book influencer @readyourworriesaway.

The ninth book in the series, The Dark Time, is another propulsive thriller. At the suggestion of his girlfriend, June Cassidy, Peter rides to the aid of an investigative reporter who may have stumbled on a story more explosive than even he can handle.

ABOUT THE BOOK:

This latest installment follows Katelyn Thorsen (known as KT to her friends and enemies), an independent journalist who receives a very specific death threat while tracking down the story of her career. If she doesn’t back away, it may quickly turn out to be the last story of her life. Fortunately, Peter Ash has arrived in town to look for KT at his girlfriend June’s request. From the moment of his arrival, he's thrown into a maelstrom of violence trying to protect KT and her daughter. Peter is a man who has always risen to every challenge . . . but this one may be too much for even him.

In his 2016 debut The Drifter, Petrie introduced Peter Ash, a war veteran struggling with PTSD who finds himself in dangerous situations and facing challenges that only a man with his unique skill set can solve. Set in Seattle and the Pacific Northwest, The Dark Time resonates with timely urgency as it tackles political fanaticism—an issue of growing national concern. With growing appeal among readers, the story also foregrounds Peter’s relationships with girlfriend June Cassidy and best friend Lewis, adding a rich emotional dimension that deepens the high-stakes action. Fans of Lee Child, John Sandford, and Robert Crais won’t be able to put this one down.
