The Country Road Murders: A Thriller
First published 2027
“Fascinating … deeply American … the story of a town that needs a different kind of hero. The plot is so propulsive, it blows you away. This is a great one.” ―Morning Joe After a shocking accident, Silas Tucker’s legendary football career is suddenly over in this action-packed sports thriller powered by loyalty, competition, and family. Humbled, but never defeated, he returns to his backwoods hometown, Cross Rivers, North Carolina, where his father was murdered. He goes back to what’s left of his family and their small, struggling farm. He reunites with his best friend in the world―Taylor McCarter Webb, who is now married. Then Silas is pulled into a deadly battle with the Southern Mafia who control drugs, trafficking and murder. As the suspense crescendos, Silas follows one rule for survival: you don’t ride these country roads alone, or in the dead of night.
