A book tour becomes a nightmare. A cry for help becomes a death sentence.

Montreal author Eddie Barrow expected a quiet signing trip to Montego Bay. What he got was a front-row seat to a savage murder—and a target on his back.

Within hours of arriving in Jamaica, Eddie and his best friend Corey Stephenson witness a gruesome killing outside a local bar. When the victim's sister begs for their help, what they uncover is far darker than a single crime: a vast conspiracy of foreign corporate corruption and a horrifying string of sex crimes that powerful people want buried forever.

As Eddie and Corey dig deeper, they find themselves in the crosshairs of a ruthless criminal network with reach far beyond the Caribbean. Navigating a culture where victims are silenced by discriminatory laws, the two amateur sleuths must risk everything to expose the truth—before they become the next bodies to drop.

Inspired by true events that sent shockwaves around the world, Jam Run is a gripping, Afro-Caribbean LGBTQ crime thriller that explores identity, courage, and the fight for justice.
