Mike thought he was living the American dream. Life was simple-a boring job, quiet nights, no sudden moves. But when Finster reappears, everything unravels fast.
Finster, his old friend and walking catastrophe, shows up high, frantic, and dragging a trail of gasoline and bodies behind him. And where Finster goes, trouble follows-this time in the form of The Mantis, a sadistic manipulator with cartel connections and a grudge.
Mike doesn't owe Finster anything. Not anymore. But loyalty's a hard habit to break-especially when the past comes roaring back with a baseball bat and a gas can.
Thrown into the fire: Bozo, a deranged clown with a bloodstained grinOfficer Tulber, a cop who's done looking the other wayAnd a woman who might be Mike's only shot at something sane--if she's not playing her own gameBrutally funny, ferociously violent, and dark as a gas station at 3 a.m., Gasoline and Bad Decisions is a high-octane plunge into the wreckage of friendship, redemption, and the stupid things we do for the people who once saved us.
Welcome to the burn.
