The Last King of Texas
About this audiobook
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series
Multiple-award-winning author Rick Riordan brings back smart-mouthed Texas PI Tres Navarre for his most dangerous case yet. If you think the academic world is deadly dull, you’re half right. …

It should be an easy assignment—but one thing Tres doesn’t do is easy. When the evidence in the case starts looking a little too perfect, when the killing doesn’t stop, Tres takes on some extracurricular research into the heart of an assassin—and lands in a high-stakes game of gangster honor on the darkest streets of San Antonio’s West Side. …
