Den Laurey, the leader of one of the country's most violent biker gangs, should have been behind bars. But thanks to a daring escape on the L.A. freeway, several US marshals are dead and Laurey is riding free. Tim Rackley, back on the service's warrant squad, is in hot pursuit of the outlaw and his ruthless gang--with a media whirlwind and the entire Los Angeles law enforcement community dogging him. Tim's search leads him into a dark world of deception, of criminals and undercover cops, and drugs and mutilation. With the stakes rising, Tim must unravel a horrifying secret and confront a deadly terror that reaches from the back alleys of Mexico to the poppy fields of Afghanistan--and threatens to explode on the dark streets of L.A.

Hasn't disappointed me yet!

Hurwitz has a talent that few authors can match when it comes to writing an action packed story. He grabs you quickly and doesn't let go. Pages fly by in a flurry and leave you yearning for more as the last page disappears.

Tim Rackley is back and still going strong!!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 11, 2005

Verified Purchase

After the great work he did breaking up the mind controlling cult in THE PROGRAM, deputy U. S. Marshall Tim Rackley is once again back on the job. This time around he's assigned as head of the task force formed to track down Den Laurey, leader of the violent biker gang the Laughing Sinners, who escapes custody while being transported to San Bernardino County Jail, leaving two U. S. Marshals dead. Laurey is known for his knife skills and was convicted of torture killing of three rival gang members in retaliation for the shooting of a Sinner. He's armed and dangerous, but not alone. With him is Lance Kaner, the gang's enforcer, and together the two are a lethal combination. With Bear and Guerrera again at his side, Rackley works day and night trying to find leads. At one point it seems as if he's got a good chance of apprehending them, but a situation arises that leaves him no choice but let them go, which results in the shooting of a sheriff's deputy not far from the scene. The wounded deputy turns out to be his wife Drey, who also happens to be eight months pregnant, which results in feelings of guilt and frustration. While still trying to deal with the loss of his daughter Ginny, who was murdered years ago, he must put his personal feelings aside and put an end to the violence, especially after the gang goes on a violent rampage in preparation for a drug deal of a new string of heroin which leads the marshals from Mexico to Afghanistan.

TROUBLESHOOTER is a great addition to the Rackley series! It's filled with so much action and suspense you just can't turn the pages fast enough. Gregg Hurwitz is one of my favorite authors, and in my opinion one of today's greatest suspense writers. He's got a style all his own and has never disappointed me yet, so if you haven't already discovered this great author I recommend you do so today!

Above average Action/Adventure tale

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 5, 2017

Verified Purchase

This was pretty good- although the action was difficult to follow in places.

Plot, Rackley and whole bunch of law enforcement agencies are busting up a biker gang who's getting ready to distribute a super form of heroin for a big score. During one of the inititial scenes Rackley's cop wife is gunned down by the escaping gang. She survives in a coma. Now its personal and Rackley takes the gloves off.

Plot- about what you'd expect. Pretty linear, chase the bad guys, not really twisting and turning.
Characterization- strong point of the book. You develop affinity for even minor characters rapidly.
Dialogue- respectable
Narrative- could use some help. We get lost in the action sometimes and just have to hope to pick up the thread later on

Overall- readable and better than most entries in this category.

My husband and I enjoy all of Gregg Hurwitz's books. The Tim Rackley books are no exception. It has been a little hard to find all four of them but we managed. Excellent reads if you like police action.

Main Character Brings The Story Down

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 2, 2013

Verified Purchase

This is the second book that I read by Gregg Hurowitz. I really enjoyed They're Watching and felt the tensson and suspense from start to finish in that book.
There were a lot of good things about TroubleShooter. First, the plot where Tim Rackley was going after a motorcycyle gang called the Laughing Sinners. They seemed just as scarey if not more scarey than the Sons of Anarchy.
What started as Den Laurey escaping police custody on the LA Freeway where several US Marshalls were killed drove Rackley to go after the gang with two of his sidekicks, Bear and Guerrera. Much of the tension from there is Rackley's efforts to bring Den Laurey to justice but something seems to block him all the time and Laurey manages to slip from his grasp.
I didn't expect this to also involve a plot that reached into Afganistan with the Tears of Allah but I thought that moved the story along well as well. There were great action scenes such as the escape and a shootout between a member of the Sinners and Rackley.
The story kept moving further when Rackley's pregant wife, Dray, was attacked during a prison shootout. Rackley was down and out having to be there for his wife and at the same time trying to avenge the attack by Den Laurey.
Dialogue with Guerrera and Bear was sharp and they were characters that came off the page. It was hard for me to get a good reading on Rackley. Maybe it was me but I didn't feel the tension of the plot with him and Laurey like the tension and edge of my seat suspense from They're Watching.
Gregg Hurwitz is a great writer and I will be reading more of his books. As for this one, I'll go 3-1/2 stars.

Great characters and the story had a nice flow to it. I don’t know how close to reality this is with the motorcycle gangs but it seemed to be true to life. I’ve read book 1 and 2 - enjoyed those as well.

Solid conclusion to the series

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on March 7, 2022

Verified Purchase

The final book in the Tim Rackley series is a good entry; not exceptional, just good and ticks most of the right boxes, and yes, you will need to have read the first 2 books to make sense of it. Of course, if you haven’t picked that up from the descriptions and go straight in to this one well, honestly, you deserve to get confused!

Very little character development in this one as most of that’s been done in the previous novels so it really isn’t needed. The big miss is Dray who, without giving it away, isn’t involved for most of the book. And when she is present it’s a bit boring and tedious. An underused character that’s sidelined for large portions.

Simple plot revolving around an outlaw biker gang that could’ve been taken straight from Sons of Anarchy. Nothing that’ll tax your brain and it’s easy enough to follow, along with some ‘twists’ which aren’t really needed. Not sure that dry-cleaning has been used in an interrogation before, yet it is and the laugh it gave me wasn’t because it was funny, more of a “really?” moment. Still, the book needed some laughs.

And the conclusion doesn’t feel satisfying either. I was left with the impression that the author ran out of inspiration for the end and just decided to wind things up really quickly. Leaves the door open for a fourth novel, however, I hope not because I struggle to see where it would go.

So yeah, a good, solid action thriller which lacked a killer ending and kinda fizzles out. If you’ve enjoyed the first 2 novels you’ll like this.

STRENGTH IN DEPTH

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on July 22, 2017

Verified Purchase

Hurwitz has done it again. This my sixth Gregg Hurwitz and, except for one less-than-100% offering, they've been brilliant. Of the Tim Rackley series, Troubleshooter is, arguably, the best yet.

It is now clear to me that, before turning on his PC to write the first word, Mr Hurwitz undertakes the detailed and forensic exploration of his subject matter that's usually reserved for historical novelists. In this case, it's the world of biker gangs. The name of the fictional biker gang here is the Laughing Sinners which is awfully close to the equally fictional biker gang, the Laffing Devils, that featured in the notoriously faked TV series, The Devil's Ride. That glitch aside, this is an absolutely storming book with no let up at all in the driving plot line and relentless action. If I have one, very minor, complaint, it's that the main hero characters are just a shade too perfect but, hey, I can forgive that in a story this good.

So my only problem now is that I'm worried that my next selection from the Gregg Hurwitz catalogue can't match this quality. But I've been wrong about that so far, so I'm, definately, going to give it a go!
