From a true modern master of noir fiction comes a twisty new tale about two small town crooks who get in over their heads . . .

Peck and Al have a good thing going. The two brothers own a bar and a hardware store and make a comfortable living. They also launder money for a criminal organization. Everything is perfectly fine until Peck begins to suspect that his brother is going to betray him to the local District Attorney. Things get even more complicated between them when Al’s hard drive with millions of dollars in Crypto goes missing – Peck was the only other person with access. 

What starts out as a family squabble turns into an international battle between competing crime organizations, moving from small town New England to San Francisco to Mexico. Along the way the brothers encounter betrayal, double-dealing, kidnapping, and ultimately, revenge.

Praise for All We Trust

PRAISE FOR ALL WE TRUST:

"A man, his daughter, and his partner-in-crime test the bonds of blood and loyalty in this taut gem of a novel. Pitch-perfect noir. Gregory Galloway proves, once again, that he's an absolute master of his craft." —Alma Katsu, author of Red London

"An edge of your seat, noir power punch. Two career criminal brothers have always trusted each other, until they don't. Is one secretly working with the Feds? Is the daughter of one the brothers trying to grift both of them? They don’t know and we don’t either. It’s a non-stop, wild ride of a novel." —Willy Vlautin, author of The Horse: A Novel

"The best crime novels transcend the tropes of genre and All We Trust does that in spades.  Yes, it’s the story of two career criminals who launder money.  But at its heart is the story of relationships—a man and his daughter and his crime partner brother.  Told from shifting perspectives in an affable and honest way, you will not forget these characters and the decisions they make."Chris Offutt, author of The Reluctant Sheriff

PRAISE FOR JUST THIEVES:

A CrimeReads "Best Noir Novel of 2021"

"A sucker punch noir that is also a powerful and haunting allegory of work, debt, and power." —Richard Price

"Just here to let everyone know that Gregory Galloway's JUST THIEVES is a wonderful novel. Shades of Patricia Highsmith. Queer noir, just bleak enough but also fun. And it just moves right along." - Christian Kiefer

"An unreliable narrator makes this thriller all the more gripping." — WBUR

"When a book begins with a dead horse, you know it's going to be good, and Just Thieves, a taut, understated, brilliant noir, is not only good but great." - CrimeReads

"Galloway is as good at characterizations as he is at tight, and surprising, plotting." - Publishers Weekly starred review

"A novel about crooks is one thing, but a novel about crooks that becomes impossible to put down because it makes you think about your own moral compass is something else altogether. That's exactly how captivating Just Thieves is. This outstanding novel is certain to earn Galloway a spot on the list of noir's modern masters." - Gabino Iglesias, Southwest Review
