What to expect
Two brothers, two sides, one war, from which neither can escape.
Kenny Ruck is out of prison and out for revenge. His target? Cas Ferrier, Billy’s closest ally. But the real threat isn’t Ruck. It’s the Shipley family.
They need Jesse to bury evidence in a murder case, and yet they know he can’t be bought.
There is one Shipley who Dottie could never forget – Candice. Now she’s back . . . and she’s the head of the hydra.
The Shipleys have no code and no limits. Their warnings are brutal, relentless, and crystal clear. They will destroy Billy, his empire, and everyone he loves.
Now Billy has a choice: to give the Shipleys what they want or . . .
The question isn’t who wins. It’s who survives.
A gritty, high-stakes crime thriller packed with ruthless power plays, deadly rivalries, and explosive twists. Perfect for fans of dark underworld crime fiction, pulse-pounding suspense, and edge-of-your-seat action.
