ABOUT THE BOOKS
ALL DEBTS, PUBLIC AND PRIVATE
(The 1st Billy Keene Book)
“…like a mashup of a Jim Thompson novel with a John Hiatt song…cunning, funny, human, and brutal, often at the exact same time.”
— Reader Review
HOW FAR WOULD YOU GO WHEN BETRAYED BY PEOPLE YOU THOUGHT YOU KNEW?
An inexperienced sheriff working his first kidnapping case. A lottery-winning grandmother determined to handle things in her own savage way. And the ruthless party-girl in the middle of it all.
Sheriff Billy Keene is in way over his head. He knows it and so does everyone else in the small town of Caulfield, including his unruly deputies. So when the spoiled granddaughter of a local-lottery winner is kidnapped, everyone is telling Billy how to do his job. Or, worse, not telling him anything at all.
Arlita Hardy’s certainly not saying much and why should she? She’s got the money and the iron will to rescue her granddaughter — and punish the kidnappers — rather than turn it over to someone as green as Billy.
And in the middle of it all is Sharla Ricketts. As usual, she’s drinking and drugging, playing one side against the other and lying to the liars. But Sharla’s life has gotten even more out of hand since we last saw her in Getaway. She doesn’t realize all her craziness may cost her more than she’s willing to pay.
With time running out and the meth-head kidnappers growing more brutal each day, Billy scrambles to find Arlita’s missing granddaughter. But Billy’s always a step behind Arlita…and his next step just might get him killed.
With All Debts, Public And Private, the first crime novel in The Billy Keene Stories, award-winning crime fiction author Chad Sanborn gives readers a taut, thrilling story filled with deception, wicked humor and redneck vengeance.

BROKEN HEARTLAND
(The 2nd Billy Keene Book)
“This story just keeps you captivated and I could not put it down. These books and characters crack me up!”
— Reader Review
BILLY DIGS INTO A BIZARRE AND BRUTAL CASE
Sheriff Billy Keene’s still learning on the job–and learning dark secrets about the colorful people in his small, odd hometown of Caulfield.
Racist vandalism (correctly spelled, which passes for a solid clue in Caulfield) pops up after more than a few golfing buddies trade in their first wives for mail-order brides.
So when one of the foreign brides is viciously attacked, Billy’s unsure: Is he investigating a hate crime? Or a crime of passion?
With his own love life in chaos – and his life-life in the cross-hairs – Billy discovers that intense passions of all kinds can push people to commit acts of heartbreaking kindness and unspeakable brutality.
Broken Heartland, the second Billy Keene book, is a menacingly suspenseful page-turner that’s both savagely funny and unflinchingly human.

What Readers Are Saying About Broken Heartland:
“A great 5-star book!!”
“I loved this story.”
“More than a few times I found myself chuckling.”
“The action (and the mystery) started out slow, like a snowball at the top of a slope, and picked up speed and snow all the way down the hill to the massive conclusion.”
“I recommend it highly.”
“The dry sense of humor for these characters is ‘to die for.’ I didn’t want it to end.”
“I LOVED the story. Looking forward to more Billy.”
THE GRIFTED GIRL
(The 3rd Billy Keene Book)
“Billy is back and it’s the best yet.“
— Reader Review
SHE’S TWICE AS SMART. THEY’RE TWICE AS RUTHLESS.
Their teacher refers to them as grifted—intellectually gifted but very much at-risk high school students.
After Valerie Aguilar, an exceptionally bright, exceptionally rebellious teenager, makes a fool out of Sheriff Billy Keene during a classroom visit, Billy – barely a grownup himself – questions what he has to offer this younger generation coming of age in his beloved, if twisted, Caulfield.
Then, while investigating an assault, Billy hears whispers about Doyle and Ionia Ikey. The Ikeys run the town’s roller skating rink, video arcade, outdoor paintball field…and, rumor has it, lure vulnerable teens into their crime ring. Unfortunately, Billy has absolutely zero proof to move against them.
After Valerie refuses his help and gets herself deeply entangled in the Ikey’s crooked schemes, Billy discovers there’s no line he won’t cross to protect the girl.
But the Ikeys? They want to make sure the girl’s gone for good.
The Grifted Girl, the 3rd Billy Keene Book, shows award-winning crime fiction author Chad Sanborn at his fast-moving, unpredictable, suspenseful best.

A TWISTED INTRODUCTION TO THE UNHINGED WORLD OF
THE BILLY KEENE STORIES
A financial advisor with a gambling problem. His sexaholic best friend. And one very attractive and very bored young woman. When they all meet it turns into a vicious game of cat and mouse—but who’s the cat and who’s the mouse?
Leaving behind their quiet suburbs, Felix and his well-off best friend, Geoff, check into a resort casino for a lost boys weekend — a little golf, some gambling and a lot of indulging their worst impulses.
No sooner do they arrive than they meet Sharla. She’s down for drinking, drugging and generally jacking with people. Nothing personal, it’s just her way of entertaining herself while her boyfriend, a big and rich redneck with a temper, gambles away his daddy’s money.
Felix recognizes that Sharla is trouble. So when she decides to have some fun by letting Geoff think he’s seducing her all so she can steal from him, it’s up to Felix to look out for his naive friend. Of course, whenever Sharla’s involved it’s a different sort of gambling and this time it will be for the ultimate stakes when her idea of what passes for entertainment takes a cruel turn.
But despite his suburban dad appearance, Felix is no stranger to ruthless people, and before this getaway weekend is over, everyone will be betting against their own better nature to survive.
With Getaway, award-winning crime fiction author Chad Sanborn gives readers a fun, sexy and twisted introduction to some of the unhinged characters populating his crime fiction series, The Billy Keene Stories.
