Over the Edge

2023

In the tranquil backwoods of Oregon, former top-secret operator Bear Logan thought he'd found a sanctuary. But even here, in the heart of nature, peace is an elusive prey. Over the Edge, the fourth book in L.T. Ryan and K.M. Rought's riveting Bear and Mandy Logan Thriller Series, pulls you into a vortex of mystery, conspiracy, and danger that will grip you from the first page to the last. Bear and his sharp-eyed daughter, Mandy, are trying to blend into the landscape, to forget the ghosts of their past. But when a chance encounter at a gas station unveils a terrified girlfriend and her menacing partner, Bear's instincts switch from survival to protector. The stage is set: a small-town brewery, the town's favorite watering hole, hides secrets as potent as its brew. The woods, once a haven, reveal a bloody clue—an abandoned shirt and a phone number that catapults Bear and Mandy into a conspiracy that runs deeper than the Columbia river. With each twist and turn, the stakes rise. And when an old friend unexpectedly surfaces with an offer to help, the lines between friend and foe blur. This isn't just a thriller—it's a pressure cooker of suspense, raising questions about trust, loyalty, and how far one will go to protect those they love. Can Bear unravel the mystery before the danger sends him over the edge? L.T. Ryan's latest page-turner serves up a nail-biting adventure that will leave readers on the edge of their seats, desperate for more. Plunge headfirst into a world where quiet woods hide deadly secrets, and no one is safe from the past.
