Aftershock

Aftershock
Aftershock

Mercenary uncovers corruption in tranquil village.

"Aftershock" pulls you into a quiet town where the scars of violence are hidden beneath the surface. If you're intrigued by the idea of a hardened soldier finding a deeper purpose in a seemingly peaceful place, this book offers a gripping narrative that blends action with a sharp critique of societal evils. It's a window into a world where the battle doesn't end with the ceasefire, and the real fight is for the soul of a community.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

The idyllic facade of a small coastal tourist magnet hides its secrets well. But when the shining star pitcher of the girls’ softball team guns down the most popular boy in school, the shockwaves reverberate far beyond the school’s walls.

When Dolly’s husband, Dell, sees his beloved wife begin her quest, he immediately signs on. A former mercenary and ex-Legionnaire, Dell treats this “job” as he would any other—with no boundaries.
