The next pulse—pounding Michael Gannon thriller by the #1 New York Times bestselling coauthor of James Patterson’s Michael Bennett series
It’s springtime in Key West, and Michael Gannon is busy supporting his son’s dreams of making it in minor league baseball. But a late—night encounter with a seemingly harmless Australian at a dive bar turns deadly when Gannon unwittingly becomes the prime suspect in a convenience store shoot—out.
Seeking the mysterious Australian to clear his name, Gannon uncovers a deadly conspiracy involving a global banker on the run from a shadow paramilitary force that will go to any lengths to stop him.
From the Florida Keys to Wall Street, Gannon’s quest for answers takes him deep into the middle of a deadly game of power where one wrong move could be his last.
Closing Time is Michael Gannon’s most pulse—pounding and audacious adventure yet.


The last thing Michael Gannon expects is to be named as a suspect in a shooting, especially since he is usually on the other side of the law.

This time, Michael gets caught up in a wrong place/wrong time scenario that puts him in the center of a deadly cat-and-mouse game. The only way out is to learn why the killers are on the trail of an Australian banker.
Packed with action and adventure, the storyline races alongside Michael as he dodges the bad guys.
Closing Time offers a pulse-pounding thriller with plenty of twists.
