Pitfall

“Action, gunplay, and well-crafted storytelling . . . for those whose hearts pump hot for shoot-’em-up adventures like Taken and John Wick.”—Robert Liparulo, bestselling author of the Dreamhouse Kings series
 
Life has never been easy for former Army Ranger John Brenner. The wounded Iraqi war vet and ex-cop must rely on his wits, his fists, and a wry sense of gallows humor to make it through each challenging day. For at his core, this transplanted West Virginian is a throwback to an antebellum time: he is a southern man of honor.

But his latest mission may be his last.

The task seems straightforward—find industrialist Jacob Cahill’s missing teenage daughter and bring her safely home. But for John, nothing ever goes quite as planned. What begins as a simple disappearance morphs into something far more insidious as he finds himself plunged into a horrifying world of organ harvesting, torture, mutilation, and madness. Every dark trick John learned in his former trade of dealing death to the deserving will be brought to bear as he tries to keep his promise of bringing the girl back alive. In doing so, not only will his skills be tested to the breaking point, but his very sanity as he battles a grasping evil that stretches across the globe . . .

“The star of this page-turner—former Army Ranger John Brenner—well, let’s just say in terms of skill, wit, and ability to kick some serious butt, Jack Reacher better watch out!”—Robert Liparulo, bestselling author of the Dreamhouse Kings series
