Publisher Description
An action-packed debut from Gregg Podolski, The Recruiter is a thrilling and unique adventure through the European underworld.
When bad guys need good help, they call Rick Carter.
He’s a criminal recruiter, searching for contract killers, hackers, gun smugglers, and any other assorted villains-for-hire a European crime boss might need. But, when the family he left behind in New Jersey is caught up in a client’s plot to monopolize the black market, Rick has to save them from two of his own top candidates: deadly assassins known only as Ghost and The Persian.
Fixing his own mess will require a set of skills he doesn’t have—not a problem, as finding qualified help is where he excels. But stepping into action, becoming the hero his family needs, that’s new territory. For a man who’s spent the last ten years being the best at helping the worst, this may be his last chance to do something right.

“The Recruiter is both a nail-biting, edge-of-your-seat crime thriller and at times a moving character study. Rick Carter is a man who lives at the nexus of different lives. When those lives crash together against his will, we see who the real Rick Carter is, and even he is surprised. A fascinating and sometimes introspective journey into the heart of the underworld; I really enjoyed it.”
— S. A. Cosby, bestselling author of Razorblade Tears and All the Sinners Bleed
Quotes
-
“Rick Carter is the ‘creator of monsters’ and I’m here for all of it. Full stop. Podolski’s debut thriller will keep you riveted, and that’s an understatement. But beyond a guy who enlists the services of villains is a story about a person trying desperately to hold on to what is most important: family. A cause you will rally behind while on this spectacular ride.”
— Yasmin Angoe, Anthony-nominated author of Her Name Is Knight -
“A skillful and page-turning action thriller that does not let up for a second…Podolski nails it.”
— First Clue Reviews -
“Buckle up! This is one faaaaaast hot rod of a thrill ride.”
— Avanti Centrae, internationally bestselling and multi-award-winning author of the VanOps series -
“Rick Carter is cunning and capable with a sarcastic wit and hilarious one-liners. It feels like the heir apparent to Nelson DeMille’s John Corey has just burst onto the scene in a big way.”
— T. R. Hendricks, author of The Infiltrator -
“Podolski creates a rich new world of assassins and underworld in his debut, setting up a sequel with a cliffhanger that will hit you like a full bucket of frozen water…Carter will win your heart and your desire to keep reading more of his stories. I can’t wait to read what troubles Podolski puts him up against next.”
— Best Thriller Books -
“Podolski nails it on his first go-round, delivering a page-turner with sharp dialogue and a memorable protagonist. Here’s hoping readers hear more from Rick [Carter] soon.”
— Publishers Weekly -
“Enough action, killing, twists, and betrayals for a whole season of quality TV.”
— Kirkus Reviews -
“Wow! What an excellent thriller—gritty noir with hard-boiled, smart-ass humor, but also a deep, empathetic view into a character who should be abhorrent yet is convincingly transformed into a hero the reader is rooting for. A stunning debut thriller with echoes of Raymond Chandler.”
— Debbie Burke, author of the award-winning Tawny Lindholm thrillers
