A dead friend. A dirty town. And one man who won't back down. Captain Frank Sherman rolls into a dusty Northern California town to visit his oldest friend--only to find him dead and the sheriff's story full of holes. The deeper he digs, the more bodies pile up. Crooked cops. A corrupt sheriff. A town so rotten it's begging to be burned down. And Sherman? He's just the man to light the match. What starts as a simple visit becomes a full-blown reckoning, as a special forces vet turns his skills loose on anyone who stands between him and the truth. Happenstance ignites the Frank Sherman Thrillers series with no-nonsense grit, explosive action, and a hero readers call "Reacher on steroids." If you love relentless justice and a body count that just keeps rising--this is your next obsession.
