Description

April 1980. A bank robbery is coming.
Nobody in Cordero is ready for it.

Tony Gonzalez never planned to raise his younger brother. But when Joey has nowhere else to go, Tony takes him in—and pulls him into Nate’s orbit: a desert compound built on guns, weed, and apocalyptic dreams.

Just down the road, Katie Harrison is desperate to get out of Cordero. Tony wants the same thing. Together, they may have one shot at escape—if Tony can keep Joey alive long enough.

For fans of Elmore Leonard, Don Winslow, and S. E. Hinton, Cordero is a lean California noir—fast, immersive, and unforgiving.
