Jacob Cameron Asprey, Jr., is the charming son of a charming crook who's
currently residing in the state pen. Strangled by family ties, Jake is
barely scraping by, working as a lifeguard at the tony country club on
the other side of town. He's marking time, treading water, haunted by
Sally Godstreet, the woman he's loved all his life--the woman he should
have made a life with, now orbiting just out his reach.
When a local crime boss offers him a deal he'd be a fool to take and a
chump to pass up, Jake sees a way out of his troubles--until his options
begin to close down, and he finds himself at the heart of a dark plot
that will place those he loves in harm's way.
This is How You Fall is a story of old flames, old debts, and a new
twist on an old con. Part-heist, part-love story, and part-literary noir
thriller, it's a moody rumination on identity and loyalty, with dazzing
plot twists that lead to an inevitable, destructive conclusion.
