Junkyard Riders
Shining Smith returns, taking on the “Dark Riders,” a paramilitary group motorcycle gang searching for Gov. political power, military connections, and alien tech. The Dark Riders are closing in on Shining’s secrets and, while she would rather nest in her new roadhouse, Shining must protect her own, once again taking the battle to the enemy.
Unfortunately, CAIT, the original AI on the junkyard’s crashed spaceship, has its own agenda buried in the ship’s code and choses this time to implement it. There is nothing Shining can do to stop it, except what she does best – plot an offensive, get her people in place, and hope Jolene can outsmart the virtual alter ego.
But the cataclysmic snowstorm crashing in with all the power and subtlety of Mateo in his WarBot suit could be the end of them all.
Book 5 in the JUNKYARD CATS series.
Faith Hunter
Faith Hunter’s writing feels like a walk through a Southern swamp—lush with mystery, brimming with danger, and full of the unexpected. Born in Louisiana and raised throughout the South, Hunter’s connection to her roots runs deep, and it’s this rich backdrop that has inspired some of the most compelling urban fantasy novels in recent years. Her Jane Yellowrock series, featuring a Cherokee shapeshifter and vampire hunter, is a perfect example of how she weaves personal heritage into dark, complex worlds. In her hands, the supernatural becomes not just a playground for action but a canvas for exploring identity, survival, and the bonds that hold us together—or tear us apart.
