About the book
His final test: to stay alive long enough to protect the people he cares about.
Cold-blooded murderer JimBone Wheeler holds Tom McMurtrie responsible for his time on death row. He swore to seek revenge on Tom and everyone close to the southern lawyer. Now free from prison, Wheeler is determined to make good on his promise. With each victim, he inches closer to his main target. But for Tom, battling cancer, the roles of savior and guardian are becoming increasingly challenging.
With the body count rising, Tom, along with his partner Rick Drake and best friend Bocephus Haynes, prepare for a showdown unlike any other. This fight will not take place in a courtroom but in the streets and fields of north Alabama. With his loved ones in danger, Tom must protect his family, friends, and reputation from a vengeful killer.
As time runs out and the threat of vengeance looms, who will survive Wheeler's ultimate retribution?
