White Gold

booklife by Publisher's Weekly

A former Texas lawman battles to save his family, solve a murder, and make sense of his own damaged life in this gritty and gripping mystery. Working in private security for wealthy energy CEO, E.J. Kane is facing a broken marriage, a son killed in Afghanistan, and a troubled daughter.

Fans of Westerns and detective and mystery stories will find this combination refreshingly different and well-represented in White Gold.

White Gold is more than a plot about problem-solving, conspiracies, or redemption. Beneath its fast-paced action lies a heart of personal inspection and social and legal conflicts that dovetail to create an involving tale, whether it takes place in the courtroom, on the street, or in E.J.'s conflicted heart.

Readers of suspense, detective, and social issues stories will find these are strong threads that pull one into the story to provide unexpected twists as E.J. comes to new realizations about his place in the world and his impact on both personal and public life.

White Gold's multifaceted draw makes it a strong recommendation for contemporary fiction libraries looking for genre-crossing standouts. D.Donovan Sr. Reviewer Midwest Book Review

Reviewed by Jill Rey for Reader Views (08/2024) 5*- Emotionally powerful, character-driven story from the heart of Texas. From truck drivers to lawmen and women, oil fields to courtrooms, "White Gold," An E.J. Kane Mystery by Micheal E. Jimerson is a fast-paced western thriller. Fully embracing Texas, the right to carry, the Rangers, and the law, readers will feel like they've landed squarely on the plains of this great state as E.J. seeks justice, at any cost. Jimerson pens an explosive thriller, literally in some sense, as he educates readers on the shady world of organized crime. Crafting E.J. Kane as a relatable yet disgraced man, navigating the complexities of fatherhood, relationships, and political correctness, his inner dialogue is generationally accurate as readers walk alongside his fight for justice. Pulling from his experience in law, Jimerson writes ex-wife, Rebecca, as a powerhouse attorney, as the courtroom drama plays out like scenes from a movie.
