Last Shot

Discover heart-racing intrigue in this Thriller Short of romantic suspense.

In this chilling Thriller Short, USA TODAY bestseller author Jon Land and Jeff Ayers write about the incongruity between a dying town in Middle America and the golden dreams its inhabitants once possessed. Molly Wagner once lived a life out of the all-American scrapbook. Loving husband, cherished son, bouncy dog. But like an old photo, the happiness and love are fading. She’s lost her job, the bank is foreclosing on her house and her husband’s passion and physique are growing flaccid. From there, matters inexorably spiral downward. First the dog dies, then even worse calamities befall her. If only time could be turned back, if only life were like an episode of The Twilight Zone. Then fate gives her one a last shot. But will it be desolation or wonder that triumphs?
