He’s wanted, wounded, out of options, and enemies are closing in from every direction.
The people hunting Chance McCabe have the kind of resources that make survival a long shot and escape impossible. His contacts are compromised. His fake identities are burned.And he’s got a bullet wound that won’t heal.
Survival means staying invisible. But a desperation move puts him on the wrong side of people who don't forgive and don't forget. Now every motel is a trap, every street corner a potential ambush, and his infected gunshot wound is the least of his problems.
In the tradition of Richard Stark's Parker and the best of hard-boiled noir, this is a story about damaged men, impossible choices, and what happens when mercy becomes a liability. No easy answers. No clean exits. Just survival.
Readers who love the relentless pace of Lee Child, the moral complexity of Dennis Lehane, and the dark edge of Don Winslow will find this a page-turner.
This is crime fiction that doesn't pull punches. Gritty, unflinching, and relentless. Perfect for readers who like their heroes complicated and their thrillers dark.
