Bad Pennies Cover Revealed

Bad Pennies by John Bukowski.

Dec. 11, 2024 – Bad Pennies, John Bukowski’s third book with PathBinder and a sequel to Project Suicide, has been graced with a fantastic cover designed by Kassondra Hattabaugh. This is the second cover the Colorado-based graphic designer has produced for PathBinder.


In this thriller, the award-winning Tennessee author crafts another breathtaking rollercoaster ride. Once again, government bureaucrats are dying by their own hands. And once again, genius scientist Deacon Creel must return from drunken exile to find a cure for an Alzheimer's treatment turned into an assassination drug. The stakes have never been more personal; love is on the line, as well as lives.


Bukowski has earned two awards from the fall 2024 BookFest awards. Checkout Time won second place in the Crime/Legal Thriller category, and Project Suicide won third place in the Techno Thriller category.


Bad Pennies is in the editing phase and should be available sometime near the end of the first quarter of 2025.
