Thanks to Amazon Books for choosing LLOYD MCNEIL'S LAST RIDE as one of their best books of the first half of 2025. I do believe one of my rewards is to be shot into space as an inspiration to women everywhere.

So anyway, yeah: LLOYD MCNEIL'S LAST RIDE. The new book. Out today. You'll like it. I hope you buy it wherever you buy your books. Albert Pujols wants you to.

I tried to make the book as entertaining as I could. It's the funniest and most heartwarming book about a man dying of a brain tumor as humanly possible. They're even turning into a movie. It is a movie I would like to watch. (After I read the book.)

I am very happy with how this book turned out, and I think you will be too. It is my attempt to wrestle with what it's like being a parent right now and not knowing what world we're leaving for our children. Of doing your best to protect them, and guide them, while you can.

Today is release day for LLOYD MCNEIL'S LAST RIDE, my new novel about a cop who, upon learning he's dying of a brain tumor, tries to get himself killed so his family can get the insurance, keeps failing and becomes a civic hero. I think you will like it.
