Product Information
Michael Connelly is a fan, calling The Replacements : "...gritty street poem recited by a voice unalterably committed to redemption and doing the right thing in a wrong world." In the second of the Bruno Johnson series, the ex-detective with Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, is pulled into a serial kidnapping investigation by a victim he once rescued as a dying child. That child, now an adult, is out to extract a skewed sense of revenge.

"The three-dimensional characters (especially the villain) turn this urban jungle sequel to The Disposables into a fantastic cat and mouse thriller. Loaded with suspense that intensifies throughout, Jonas proves a very competent puppeteer pulling the strings of valiant desperate Bruno and equally brave Marie."--The Midwest Book Review, The Replacements is a book that reels you in with the hope of a happy story, but first drags you along the rocks of despair. It shows the reader that even through trials and heartache, one can still come out strong and righteous., Harsh, brutal, violent--Bruno is not averse to employing a bit of the aforementioned in his efforts to get him closer to the missing kids. So probably not a book for the faint-hearted. I loved it myself....great characters with heart, doses of humour and plenty of action. Unlikely characters, such as Karl Drago - our whale-like bank robber revealing hidden depths of humanity and stoicism and a desire to do the right thing, despite all the previous evidence to the contrary. A fantastic read. 5 from 5 --Col's Criminal Library|9781608092475|, Praise for the Bruno Johnson Crime Series "I really loved The Disposables . It's raw, powerful, and eloquent. It's a gritty street poem recited by a voice unalterably committed to redemption and doing the right thing in a wrong world. I'll be first in line for the next one from David Putnam." --Michael Connelly, New York Times best-selling author "Dark, disturbing, and all too believable, this is the tale of one man's quest for atonement in a world where innocence is a liability." --T. Jefferson Parker, New York Times best-selling author "Reading a novel by David Putnam is almost as good as riding shotgun in a patrol car. He writes what he knows and what he knows is that justice on the mean streets isn't always black and white. Gritty and dark, The Reckless is a realistic and highly entertaining police procedural." --Robin Burcell, New York Times best-selling author "Putnam is a master of the gritty realism of law and order at street level. I guarantee that The Ruthless will grab you by the throat, shove you against the wall, and won't release you until the final, satisfying page." --William Kent Krueger, New York Times best-selling author "David Putnam's The Heartless is terrific--a smart, well-written, relentless account of a battle against evil, fought by a protagonist who has a real man's flaws, but also shows us the kind of heroism that's real." --Thomas Perry, New York Times best-selling author "This is a police procedural that dazzles with authenticity, sharply-drawn characters, crackling dialogue, and insider details that only a real cop could bring to the page. Putnam can stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Joseph Wambaugh and Michael Connelly." --Lee Goldberg, New York Times best-selling author "David Putnam knows the mean streets and the characters who inhabit them better than anyone writing crime fiction." --Alan Russell, New York Times best-selling author "Starting fast and keeping the accelerator floored, Putnam deftly keeps readers--and Bruno--on the edge with clever twists and intense action scenes. Loaded with insider details on police procedure and tactics." --Glen Hamilton, Anthony and Edgar Award-winning author "While laying low in Costa Rica, former LAPD detective Bruno Johnson must return to California--and risk everything to stop a ruthless kidnapper. The action won't slow down." -- Booklist, " The Replacements is listed as a thriller. And it is just that. As the plot thickens, Bruno's heart is racing as will yours as you read of his exploits. You know that he is wanted by the FBI. But on realizing that he is giving his kids a life free of fear and torture, you just have to be on his side. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and am anxiously awaiting the next episode." --Bookloons.com, "The three-dimensional characters (especially the villain) turn this urban jungle sequel to The Disposables into a fantastic cat and mouse thriller. Loaded with suspense that intensifies throughout, Jonas proves a very competent puppeteer pulling the strings of valiant desperate Bruno and equally brave Marie." -- The Midwest Book Review "Putnam steadily ratchets up the tension, while memorable supporting characters, like the courageous Marie, help engage reader interest." -- Publishers Weekly "Harsh, brutal, violent--Bruno is not averse to employing a bit of the aforementioned in his efforts to get him closer to the missing kids.

Unlikely characters, such as Karl Drago - our whale-like bank robber revealing hidden depths of humanity and stoicism and a desire to do the right thing, despite all the previous evidence to the contrary. A fantastic read. 5 from 5|9781608092475|, The hero of this rowdy novel made his first appearance two years ago in The Disposables. The sequel makes quick mention of the earlier adventure in an opening chapter, then gets down to the violent life of ex-cop, ex-con Bruno Johnson. The plot motor is a twist on a detective-story standby: a long-forgotten crime surfaces to haunt the hero. But here it's Johnson's good deed that sets things off. In a stunning opening, we flashback to a day when Johnson rescued a child shot by his mother. Now the child is grown up and mean, and he's seeking, for reasons the author withholds till the finale, a nutty revenge. Johnson had hoped for the tamer life of a bartender, but he must go rogue again and, this time, battle thieves and killers before bringing the story home. The narrative charges ahead full tilt, like a bullet train. Readers may find the plot overcomplicated, and the good-hearted heels a bit of a stretch, but that hardly matters when the action won't slow down, and we're with the story all the way., " The Replacements is listed as a thriller. And it is just that. As the plot thickens, Bruno's heart is racing as will yours as you read of his exploits. You know that he is wanted by the FBI. But on realizing that he is giving his kids a life free of fear and torture, you just have to be on his side. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and am anxiously awaiting the next episode." -Bookloons.com, "The novel is fast paced and entertaining. At some points, the plot does become a bit tangled and more complex than it needs to be, but the book's saving points are always its adventure and characters. Unlike most action novels, the narrative does not shy away from being emotionally complicated, delving into the mental repercussions of kidnapping and murder. This allows the book to carve a unique identity for itself in a genre riddled with similar plots and characters. Fans of action novels will get the most out of this book. While it is a sequel, reading the first in the series is not necessary to enjoy the second book." --Foreword Reviews, "The Replacements is listed as a thriller. And it is just that. As the plot thickens, Bruno's heart is racing as will yours as you read of his exploits. You know that he is wanted by the FBI. But on realizing that he is giving his kids a life free of fear and torture, you just have to be on his side. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and am anxiously awaiting the next episode."--Bookloons.com, "Putnam's thrilling sequel to 2014's The Disposables finds Bruno Johnson, a former L.A. sheriff's cop, settled in Costa Rica with his wife, Marie, and the eight abused children they rescued and took (illegally) from the U.S. Early in his career, Johnson intervened in a violent domestic case and managed to save the life of five-year-old Jonas Mabry. Now an adult, Jonas has kidnapped two young girls and will deal only with Johnson. Johnson is unable to resist the appeal of Montclair, Calif., police chief Barbra Wicks, and returns to California to track down Jonas. Jonas proves to be a diabolically clever opponent as he runs circles around Johnson, leading him down one blind alley after another and forcing him to make desperate moves. Putnam steadily ratchets up the tension, while memorable supporting characters, like the courageous Marie, help engage reader interest." --Publishers Weekly, Putnam's thrilling sequel to 2014's The Disposables finds Bruno Johnson, a former L.A. sheriff's cop, settled in Costa Rica with his wife, Marie, and the eight abused children they rescued and took (illegally) from the U.S. Early in his career, Johnson intervened in a violent domestic case and managed to save the life of five-year-old Jonas Mabry.
