Godspeed - Paperback

by Nickolas Butler (Author)

Longlisted for the Reading the West Book Award

For the right price, you'd risk your life. Wouldn't you?

Cole, Bart, and Teddy, the three principals of True Triangle Construction, are hired to finish a project for a mysteriously wealthy homeowner. The grand house is unlike anything they've worked on before, and they're sure it'll put their name on the map. But the owner is intent on having it built in a few months, an impossible task made irresistible by an exorbitant bonus.

Up against the critical deadline and the threat of a harsh Wyoming winter, the trio will do anything to get the money, even if it means risking their lives...or each other's. With heart-pounding danger and high-stakes action, Godspeed is a gripping thriller about greed and violence that asks: How much is never enough?
