Stillwater by Tanya Scott

Luke Harris wants a decent job, a small place and a dog. Then Gus Alberici, the old boss from his teenage mistakes, slides back into view. Luke’s father is missing along with money that is not his, and a new girlfriend’s family has their own trouble brewing.

Favours turn to threats as past and present collide. Scott paces it cleanly with backstreet grit and blunt choices. Expect rusted locks, tight corners and a man trying to win back a life. Tropes: ex-criminal pulled back in, missing parent, underworld payback.
