I wanted to create a thread for everyone who purchased a book for the test run of the Book Launch Network. If you purchased a book, please comment below the book that you purchased so the author knows you supported them and to let me know that you are participating. If you purchased a book, after you have read it, please support your author by leaving a Rating and Review on the same account you purchased the book. That will allow you to leave a verified review! That is the actual value that helps the author launch their book in the amazon algorithm. I decided to support M. Damien Suriel who is one of our VIP Supporting Authors.

Nineteen years old. Night-shift cab driver. Goju-Ryu martial artist. A young man shaped by discipline, loyalty, and a code he refuses to abandon. In 1979, New York City, Diego DeLacruz works the streets from behind the wheel of a taxi, trying to survive the night and keep his world in order. But when the Cortez crime organization tries and fails to set him up with a dead body in his cab, Diego is forced to confront a brutal truth: some men will not stop until they own the streets, the people, and the fear. The Night Driver is a gritty NYC crime thriller built around martial arts, loyalty, honor, and the cost of standing your ground when walking away is no longer an option. Book One of the Diego DeLacruz Thriller Series. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0H1QSRG6T https://www.mannydsuriel.com

I’m excited to share a preview of The Night Driver, Book One in the Diego De LaCruz Thriller Series. Set in 1979 New York City, the story follows Diego De LaCruz, a nineteen-year-old night-shift taxi driver and martial artist from Alphabet City, as one violent night pulls him into a fight against a criminal organization spreading through the city. This book draws inspiration from various sources that have shaped me: the streets of New York City, martial arts, night-shift cab driving, and values such as discipline, loyalty, and the kind of grit you never forget. You can now read a sample through my Book2Look preview here: https://www.book2look.com/book/ZneEyIUIkl If the story grabs you, the book is available now. Thank you to everyone who has supported this journey. #TheNightDriver #DiegoDeLaCruz #CrimeThriller #NYCThriller #SuspenseThriller #HistoricalFiction #MartialArtsThriller

The night shift in 1979 New York was never just a job. For Diego De LaCruz, one dead body in the backseat of his cab turns the whole city into a war zone.
