The Black Ace by Gare Joyce
Hatred, blackmail, and murder--a Brad Shade hat trick. The Black Ace reunites us with our favourite, savvy fourth-liner, with plot twists, wisecracks, and an ending that could only come from G.B. Joyce.Thanks to Shade's work at the NHL draft last season, he gets to hold on to his job as scout for L.A.--at least for now. But a journeyman's work is never done. Shade is checking out the talent in Regina with his old friend and teammate Chief. But when they learn of the suicide of an old teammate from their playing days in L.A., they take a sometimes violent detour through the dark side of a small town with no shortage of secrets it wants kept at almost any cost.
G.B. JOYCE is the author of The Code and The Black Ace, the first two instalments of the Brad Shade mystery series. The books have been adapted by eOne for a television series premiering May 2016 on Global TV and starring Jason Priestley. His first piece of published fiction was John Brisker's Greatest Game, a short story that appeared in ESPN The Magazine's fiction issue in 2011. Based in Toronto, he has written about sports and more important things for newspapers and magazines for 30 years.
