With his solo debut album, Charles Kelly explores new territory with a raw sound that pushes his vocals into a lower, grittier key than what listeners have come to expect. The title track, which features Dierks Bentley and Eric Paslay, is nominated for a Grammy. (less)

""Riveting, smart and funny, The Driver is a masterfully crafted debut."--Harlan Coben. "Everything a great thriller should be--always smart, often funny, and relentlessly exciting. I loved every page."--Scott Turow. Michael Skellig is a limo driver waiting for his client in the alley behind an upscale hotel. He's spent the past twenty-eight hours ferrying around Bismarck Avila, a celebrity skateboard mogul who isn't going home any time soon. Suddenly the wind begins to speak to Skellig in the guttural accent of the Chechen torturer he shot through the eye in Yemen a decade ago: Troubletroubletrouble. Skellig has heard these warnings before--he's an Army Special Forces sergeant whose limo company is staffed by a ragtag band of wounded veterans, including his Afghan interpreter--and he knows to listen carefully. Skellig runs inside just in time to save Avila from two gunmen but too late for one of Avila's bodyguards--and wakes up hours later in the hospital, the only person of interest in custody for the murder. Complicating matters further is the appearance of Detective Delilah Groopman of the LAPD, gorgeous and brash, for whom Skellig has always held a candle. As for Avila? He's willing to help clear Skellig's name under one peculiar condition: that Skellig become Avila's personal chauffeur. A cushy gig for any driver, except for the fact that someone is clearly trying to kill Avila, and Skellig is literally the only person sitting between Avila and a bullet to the head. "The Driver has it all--crisp dialogue, complex characters, and a plot that zips at breathtaking speed."--Kathy Reichs. "The Driver is grim, funny, violent, and moving--all on the same page."--T. Jefferson Parker"-- (less)

On the mean streets of Manchester, a down-on-his-luck cabbie moonlights as a driver for a crime gang-and embarks on a collision course with murder. In this pulse-pounding miniseries, Vince McKee (David Morrissey, The Walking Dead) is pushed to the breaking point from endless days of driving rude passengers in a dingy cab for laughable pay. His fortunes change when crime boss the Horse (Colm Meaney, Star Trek: The Next Generation) taps him for high-paying driving jobs for his gang-but the thick wads of cash Vince earns may only hasten the demise of his marriage to Rosalind (Claudie Blakley, Pride & Prejudice) and worsen his relationship with his daughter (Sacha Parkinson, Mr. Selfridge). Too late, Vince realizes that his next drive may be his last. Shot on location in Manchester, The Driver is a white-knuckle ride fueled by Morrissey's gritty performance and a taut script from a writer of Shameless. (less)
