In this gripping new crime novel from the New York Times-bestselling
author, Quinn Colson returns to take down a criminal syndicate that has
ravaged his community, threatened his family, and tried to have him
killed.
Shot up and left for dead, Sheriff Quinn Colson has revenge on his mind.
With the help of his new wife, Maggie; rehabilitation; and sheer force
of will, he's walking again, eager to resume his work as a southern
lawman and track down those responsible for his attempted murder. But
someone is standing in his way: an interim sheriff, appointed by the
newly elected Governor Vardaman, the man who Quinn knows ordered his
murder. Vardaman sits at the top of the state's power structure--both
legal and criminal--and little does he know, Quinn is still working to
take him down.
Quinn will enlist the help of his most trusted friends, including
federal agent Jon Holliday, U.S. Marshal Lillie Virgil, and Nat
Wilikins, an undercover agent now working for crime queen Fannie
Hathcock. Since Quinn's been gone, the criminal element in North
Mississippi has flourished, with Hathcock enjoying unbridled freedom.
Now as a bustling factory shuts down, a labor leader ends up dead, and
Quinn's own nephew goes missing, everything looks to be unraveling. Even
an old friend from Quinn's past, Donnie Varner, is out of jail and up to
his own ways.
Quinn Colson and company have been planning for years, and now they're
finally ready to bust apart a criminal empire running on a rigged system
for far too long. This is the Battle of Jericho, the epic showdown
that's been years in the making. Eventually, the war will end--for
better or worse.
