Jack Tyrrell was a burn out. A former Green Beret and U.S. Marshal, he’s become a drunken loser who, once upon a time, accepted a bribe and was shot by the people who bribed him. Tyrrell survived the shooting. His wife, Maggie, did not. Five years after her death, Maggie appears to him as a ghost and offers him a chance to make things right. She introduces Tyrrell to Harry, who may literally be heaven-sent. Tyrrell, with Harry working as his case manager, sets out to help a veteran who’s suffering from PTSD and has assassinated a pair of Wall Street CEOs. Action, murdered Wall Street titans, the Russian mafia, and a beautiful woman mix with questions regarding free will and what constitutes moral behavior to give this thriller a spiritual edge. "Can one author combine a thriller, a romance and a ghost story? Geoff Loftus does so admirably in his fast-paced, well written and engrossing new novel about a man given a second chance from a wholly unexpected source: his dead wife, whose murder he holds himself responsible for. Let this one-of-a-kind story teach you something about love, forgiveness and even faith." - James Martin, SJ, bestselling author of "A Jesuit Guide to (Almost) Everything" and "The Abbey" The mix of Charles Dickens, Philip K. Dick and a terrific action story told by a sad, yet funny narrator is wonderfully entertaining and spiritually engaging. A great read.

Just weeks before Christmas, Marissa Carvajal wakes up naked and soaked in blood, a billionaire's corpse next to her in bed. She has no memory of the night before, no memory of his murder. And she’s agonizing over the horrible possibility that she killed the man. Jack Tyrrell, former Green Beret and U.S. Marshal, and Harry Mitchum, Tyrrell's guardian angel, will do whatever they can to save her, racing against the NYPD, a private security force the size of a small army, and a group of lethal, Chinese spies ― all of whom want to catch Marissa and send her to prison. Or worse. A gorgeous, troubled woman, a dead billionaire, action, high tech, and national security combine with questions of free will and moral responsibility to give this thriller a spiritual thrust.

On a beautiful Saturday afternoon in May, a professional assassin targets a newlywed couple as they emerge from church. It's a perfect shooting solution, but Jack Tyrrell, former Green Beret and U.S. Marshal, happens to stroll by just as the shooter prepares to fire. Tyrrell saves the bride and groom, but the assassin escapes to resume his serial killings of newlyweds. Why would a professional hitman target couples as they exit their wedding ceremonies? And why, six years earlier, was his first-known target Tyrrell's wife Maggie? Was she part of the serial murders? Tyrrell, with the help of his guardian angel, Harry Mitchum, will do whatever he has to do to catch his wife's killer. Even if it's the last thing he ever does. “If Dostoyevsky had created an action hero, that hero would be Jack Tyrrell. He’s a good man who did a horrible thing and suffers the consequences for years afterward. Tyrrell’s conscience not only never leaves him, it drags him down — he can rationalize his past behavior, but he can’t forgive himself for what he did. In The Last Thing, Geoff Loftus has mixed Crime and Punishment with a blam-blam action protagonist, and the result is another soulful, action-packed story in the Tyrrell series.” - Theodore George, author of The Deadly Homecoming and The Murders on the Square
