You can’t get to Matt Penny’s remote tattoo shop on foot. But one afternoon a man without a car turns up at his door, offering Matt double his rate to cover an old tattoo. It’s not an easy fix but Matt pulls it off. Then the client tries to kill him and Matt has to figure out why — and how he can fight an armed killer with nothing more than his talent and ingenuity.
Description
Critics have long hailed author Howard Shrier’s eye for location and ear for dialogue. Find out why in Cover Me, a gripping new story set in the world of tattooing. Artist Matt Penny runs a one-man shop called Marked Man Ink, on an isolated bluff overlooking Georgian Bay. Late one afternoon, about to close for the day, he’s pressured by a new client to do a cover-up — right now.
Needing the cash, Matt takes on the job and gives the client exactly what he wants. The client tries to kill him anyway.
But there’s more to Matt than the client thinks. He’s come up from a hard place. He doesn’t back down. And he isn’t easy to kill.
