TAMPA, Fla. - s4story -- Down & Out Books is pleased to announce that SNAKE SLAYER, a crime thriller by Rob Pierce, has been published on August 15, 2022 in trade paperback and ebook formats.

About SNAKE SLAYER …

Deria is the psychotic woman who prefers to work with a guy who's good in bed. Vern is her violent ex, who let her go because he thought she lived too dangerously. Russ is the new guy, new to Deria, new to whatever hell he's gotten himself into.

Can they keep the money from the psychotics who want it?

Are they more psychotic?

Or will they break down from the acts they must commit?

If you liked Pierce's Vern in the Heat, you're going to love Snake Slayer. And if you didn't read that one, strap in for the ride. It's fast, it's bloody, and it goes well beyond that, into the minds of those who commit the horrible crimes.

Praise for SNAKE SLAYER …

"Pierce's writing doesn't so much take you for a ride as it throws you in the trunk and takes off at top speed. Kinetic, blistering, and hard-boiled to the bone, Snake Slayer is a read to be experienced more than once." —Angel Luis Colon, author of Hell Chose Me

"Rob Pierce puts the pedal to the medal from the word go in his latest novella, Snake Slayer. Pierce is a master of tight writing and great action sequences cut lean and hard…a hard-rock symphony of violence." —Bobby Mathews, author of Living the Gimmick
