Description - Ride the Lightning by Dietrich Kalteis

“If you like your crime hard and fast, Kalteis is for you.” — Globe and Mail

“A man quickly becoming the heir-apparent to Elmore Leonard.” Crime Syndicate Magazine

Bounty hunter Karl Morgen was after Miro Knotts on a skipped bond when he found the dope dealer wrapped around an underage girl at a rave in Seattle. Dragging Miro in the hard way gets Karl’s license revoked — while Miro gets off with a suspended sentence.

So Karl finds some work as a process server in Vancouver, thinking it’s the kind of place where people settle things with middle fingers instead of guns. But the city is teeming with two-bit criminals, drug dealers, and gangsters, and Miro seizes an opportunity to settle his score with Karl while working a major drug deal. What follows is a ride through Vancouver’s underbelly, with a cast of characters whose ambition exceeds their criminal acumen, in a crackling novel marked by both gritty realism and a sharp comedic touch.
