Blind to Sin

Dave White
Blind to Sin
(Open Road, April 2025)

Though he’s a former narcotics cop, Jackson Donne doesn’t hate being in prison. It’s his penance after pleading guilty to murdering a state senator. He’s even made a friend, a protector. High school basketball coach and private investigator Matt Herrick’s father Kenneth is Donne’s cellmate. Things could always be worse . . .

Herrick hasn’t seen his parents in years—not since they pulled a bank heist which resulted in his father’s arrest and his mother’s disappearence. All that’s about to change. Someone with a lot of power and money is springing his father from prison for the job of a lifetime, stealing millions from the Federal Reserve in New Jersey. And Donne is going along for the ride.

Given the freedom he never wanted, Donne finds himself torn between loyalty and the law, between father and son, between heaven and hell . . .

Both he and Herrick will have to choose who they’re willing to live for—and who they’d die to protect…
