The past just won’t stay buried in Ronald Myres’s wickedly funny debut novel, Bodies in the Rye.
Dallas billionaire Hank Milam spends an inordinate amount of time juggling his complicated love life. While his ex-wife owns a chainsaw and isn’t afraid to use it, his current wife prefers trying to stab or shoot him—but only when he deserves it, which is more often than not. Meanwhile, his lesbian mistress has a fascination for all things dangerous…Hank included.
But Hank’s depraved world is about to get a whole lot darker with the arrival of two brothers who are hell-bent on seeking revenge for the murder of their older sibling—a murder in which Hank might or might not have played an important part.
Although Hank feels confident he can fend for himself, his belief is shaken when he realizes that the brothers aren’t targeting him at all…but are instead channeling all of their brutal plans onto Hank’s beloved teenage daughter Jennifer.
Will Hank find a way out of this predicament before Jennifer pays the price?
This darkly comic tale of love and revenge revels in the absurd even as it pushes readers to the edge of their seats.

About the Author
Ronald Myres attended Texas Tech University before graduating from military officer and flight training. During his stint as an aircraft commander, he was awarded various honors, including the Distinguished Flying Cross.
After his military service, Myres worked as a flight instructor and pilot. He also served as a member of the Aviation Maintenance Board of Advisors at the University of the District of Columbia, as one of the original executive directors of the Aviation Regulatory Advisory Committee (ARAC), and as an aide specializing in aviation issues for a Texas congressional office in Washington, DC.
Still an avid flier, Myres was appointed as the Federal Aviation Administration district federal manager in San Antonio, Texas. After a long and successful aviation career, he now manages personal investments in Barnett Shale gas and oil drilling projects.
