SFROM THE AUTHOR OF THE TEAM REAPER SERIES COMES KANE.
When John ‘Reaper’ Kane is forced to gun down a fourteen-year-old boy in self-defense, the combat-weary warrior becomes disillusioned with the endless cycle of blood and violence his life has become.
Going off-grid in the remote mountain town of Vesper Lake for a week of soul-searching, he steps in to help a young woman, and his two-fisted interference finds him running afoul of the local sheriff. In the violent aftermath, he discovers that the town suffers under the crushing stranglehold of Nazareno ‘The Nazarene Dragon’ Pedregon, a ruthless drug lord commanding his criminal empire from inside Black Bog Federal Prison, a cesspool of death and corruption.
Framed for murder, Kane is dragged into the prison and forced to fight for his life when Nazareno finds out who he really is. Alone, exhausted, and outgunned, with enemies closing in on all sides, the odds are stacked against him. But when the hunt turns primal, Kane knows that the only way to survive is by tooth and nail.

by Mark Allen
On a dark day of despair, poet Alexander Cole is gunned down in a blaze of bullets as his wife and daughter are viciously slaughtered by evil hands. In the final cruel moments of his life, he watches the two people closest to his heart torn to pieces, his world shattered by three killers united in an unholy trinity of guns, guts, and greed.
But death is not always the end. Alexander's anguished cries reach beyond the gates of eternity and summon a force of righteous retribution. Vengeance knows no bounds, hatred cannot be shackled, and sometimes the grave cannot hold the terrible rage of true love wronged.

GRISTLE Kindle Edition

Haunted by soul-ripping guilt and fiercely despised by his son, Jack turns to the bottle while Kevin turns to crime. But three years behind bars does nothing to dull the hate he feels toward his father.
Desperate to reconnect, Jack takes Kevin on a hunting trip to Scar Lake, arranged by a preacher with his own emotional scars. But there is something wicked in the woods that doesn’t care about emotions—it only cares about death and torment. The hunters become the hunted as small town secrets are dragged from the darkness and Jack finds himself facing an impossible choice as his son’s life hangs in the balance.
Gristle is a brutal, bloody, briskly-paced novel of redemption, sacrifice, and backwoods horror in the classic tradition of The Hills Have Eyes and Wrong Turn.
