About
When Marine sniper Mason Carr leaves the Corps, he thinks the hardest part of his life is behind him. Huntsville, Alabama gives him exactly what he wanted-steady work, a stubborn wife who loves him, and two daughters who think he can fix anything from broken toys to bad dreams.
A simple family trip to the North Georgia mountains changes all of that. On a narrow ridge road, a staged breakdown turns into an ambush. Mason takes a bullet to the head and wakes up in the dirt to find his truck gone and his family taken.
The men who grabbed them aren't drifters. They're part of a cartel pipeline that runs along the Tennessee River-moving drugs, weapons, and people through quiet Southern towns that don't ask questions. They think they left Mason Carr dead on the mountain.
They're wrong.
Using the skills he thought he'd retired, Mason tracks the route from a ranger station to a forgotten river port, through an old power plant and into a network of corrupt cops and bought-and-paid-for officials. Along the way he crosses paths with Mateo Cruz, a reluctant cartel driver with a family of his own and just enough conscience left to be dangerous.
As the bodies and bad decisions stack up, Mason has to decide how far a father goes to bring his family home-and what kind of man walks back into his house after he's crossed that line.
