From the Publisher

“A strong opening to a new series! Armand Rosamilia has assembled an engaging cast of characters in Shake Down, some of them struggling with the ghosts of their past, others just looking for a good time on their way to the next adventure. Watching the repo crew at the center of this story interact with each other was a treat, as they tease and cajole, bicker and fight, or set their differences aside and truly step up for each other. This tightly knit group feels authentic, and I hope to read more about them. Action, suspense, thriller, and mystery—you’ll find all of these elements in this page turner of a book.” -Nick Sullivan, author of The Deep Series.

"Everybody loves a black sheep comes good story, and Armand's protagonist, Clayton 'Don't Call me Clay' Conway, has the perfect mix of imperfection and hope. His flaws are subtly dragged to light while the page-turning turmoil hits him from all angles. Armand is a best-seller in many diversified genres, and will undoubtedly add Coastal Thrillers to that list." Nicholas Harvey - Author of the AJ Bailey Adventure and Nora Sommer Suspense series.

Upping the game.

Can’t wait for the next one. Such a fun read. The writing was strong and the characters fleshed out well. If you’ve read the Dirty Deeds series, you’ll pick up an a bunch of Easter eggs in here. And you get to find out who lives above The Ruby Skull. Cassie Conway is an intriguing character and I hope there is more of her to come.

Strong Story and Performance

Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2022

A former ex-cop now in the repo business, Clayton (never Clay!), is trying to right some wrongs with his family. However, the local cartel is making it more difficult than he had anticipated. Now he must protect his family and friends while also defeating the bad guys.

Armand Rosamilia, the author, weaves a thrilling story with unique named locations and well-developed characters. The plot was well constructed with solid plot twists to keep you listening. Rosamilia has a talent for creating characters that are realistic and practical.

The narrator, Jack de Golia, gives a strong performance. His unique voices and he uses his skill at pitch and cadence to project the action and situations. I have heard several books performed by de Golia and he never disappoints!

Overall, this is a good solid, and interesting thriller mystery with strong characters. Combined with a strong voice actor, you won’t go wrong with this book. I highly recommend this new series.

There were no issues with the quality or production of this audiobook. It was clear and crisp.

THE START OF A GREAT SERIES!

Reviewed in the United States on January 21, 2022

This is the first book in what I know will be another great crime series by Rosamilia. The characters are compelling and interesting and I love the fact there are characters that will be familiar to fans of his Dirty Deeds series which I love. A must read if you love crime thrillers.
