Publisher's Summary

The name is Allen. Ken Allen. These days, Ken Allen is a nobody.

But once upon a time, his name was Brand. Jove Brand. Eighteen years ago, Ken Allen played the famous fictional superspy in Near Death, a movie so bad, it was never meant to be seen. Since then, Ken has faded into cult obscurity, but when his celebrated successor is killed in the same ghastly fashion as the villain in Near Death, Ken is cast as the prime suspect.

The only way for Ken to clear his name is to go full method and once again play the part of Jove Brand, except this time it’s for real. As murder surrounds him, the secrets behind Near Death Ken fought to keep buried for 18 years begin to surface.

What the critics say

"[A] nicely plotted debut.... Readers will have fun spotting the real-life inspirations for the characters, and the authentically described fight scenes will please martial arts enthusiasts. Hopefully, Ken will be back soon for a sequel." (Publishers Weekly)

"J. A. Crawford's debut is a pitch-perfect combination of action, mystery, and humor." (Anthony Award-winning author Gigi Pandian)
