He’d promised Sheriff Payne that he wouldn’t take any more matters into his own hands. So, when on a leisurely morning drive, SEAL-trained Thomas O’Shea sees two girls attacking a boy on a sidewalk, he opts not to intervene. When the boy is later murdered in the local hospital, though, all promises are off. What seems at the start to be a simple case of gang activity turns out to be far more. Even O’Shea, who has seen more than his share of evil, could not have guessed what is about to transpire…

My Review

Wow, what a ride you are about to embark on as you begin turning the pages of this book.
We sure don’t lack for action, and we are soon rooting for good over evil, and faces are put on the perpetrators and we wonder what makes these people tick.
Our Mr. O’Shea is sure a guy you would want on your side, and will look for him in future books. I sure found myself cheering for him, and he does have a habit of making his own law, which I found condoning.
A recommended read for sure!

I received this book through Great Escapes Book Tour, and was not required to give a positive review.
