Beginning:

Pain in my head woke me. Again.

Friday 56:

I slowly took the phone out of my pocket and turned on the flashlight app. Pain vibrated inside me with each slight movement. I pointed the flashlight at the cement driveway and searched for my glasses, one small area at a time.

This week I am spotlighting Last Redemption by Matt Coyle. This is a recent addition to my Review stack and is the eighth book in a series I haven't read. Here is the description from Amazon:

Will Rick Cahill survive an insidious disease long enough to see his first-born child—or will sadistic killers murder him first?

Rick Cahill is finally living a settled, happy life. His fiancée, Leah Landingham, is pregnant with their first child and he is doing PI work that pays well and keeps him out of danger. Then a doctor gives him the bad news about the headaches he’s been suffering—CTE, the pro football disease that leads to senility and early death—a secret he keeps from Leah and his best friend Moira MacFarlane.

When Moira asks him to monitor her son, Luke—who’s broken a restraining order to stay away from his girl-friend—a simple surveillance explodes into greed, deceit, and murder. Luke goes missing, and Rick’s dogged determination compels him to follow clues that lead to the exploration of high finance and DNA cancer research.

Ultimately, Rick is forced to battle sadistic killers as he tries to find Luke and stay alive long enough to see the birth of his child.
