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
“This is lean, mean, and utterly sublime literary pulp fiction. Galloway sucks you in with a fascinating protagonist, takes a hard left about a quarter of the way in, and twists and turns his way to a thrilling climax. All the while keeping the story low to the ground, and the characters more and more surprising and compelling as it moves along. If you like noir, even a little, there is no reason not to get this deftly executed book.”—Goodreads reviewer

ABOUT ALL WE TRUST: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.
