Strangely Sober by Essa Alroc

When Angelica Salvatori, AKA Sal, originally got her diagnosis, she
decided to accept it and adapt. Nearly four years later, she’s learned
to live with being a paranoid schizophrenic. So maybe she still
occasionally takes advice from a Gary Busey hallucination. At least her
career is booming. Of course, being a criminal mastermind in a city like
Miami is easy for a genius…even a delusional one.
Between
running cons with her mismatched family, trying to burn down her bar,
and dealing with her occasional breaks with reality, Sal has enough on
her plate. Then fate decides to toss a long lost twin into the mix,
along with a mysterious man who wants to abduct them both. Did one of
Sal’s jobs go bad? Sal doesn’t know, but she’s intent on finding out. So
she does what any good delusional sociopath would do; she packs her
suitcase for a cross country crime spree, ready to confront her
adversary.
Unfortunately for Sal, her well-meaning sister hires
Cole Warner, a private security consultant, to track her down and
protect her. Cole is determined to do his job; no matter how many times
Sal drugs him or steals his car. He is soon dragged into trailer park
shootouts and meetings with drug cartel as Sal jumps from state to
state, obsessed with solving the mystery.
Sal and Cole find
themselves drawn into the illicit underworld of human trafficking, where
they begin to unravel the secrets of Sal’s past. With the help of Sal's
diverse family, a suitcase full of explosives, and a recurring Gary
Busey hallucination, the two embark on a journey to defeat a man who may
be as dangerous to Sal as she is to herself.
