Description
A haunted cop. A ruthless cartel. A quest for vengeance that will leave no one unscathed.
When detective John Sole and his partner uncover a connection between a senator and a Mexican drug cartel, they set off a chain of events that shatters Sole's world. The cartel's enforcer murders Sole's partner, wife, and children, leaving him devastated and consumed by a thirst for revenge.
Resigning from the police, Sole disappears into the shadows, tracking down those responsible for his family's murder. With each step, he edges closer to his ultimate target: the cartel boss who ordered the hit that destroyed his life.
In this gritty thriller, author Glenn Trust takes readers on a heart-wrenching journey through the underbelly of the drug trade, where a man must confront the darkest parts of himself to find redemption.
Can John Sole outmaneuver the cartel and exact his revenge, or will he become another casualty in a war without end?

About the Author
Glenn Trust is the author of the bestselling Hunters, Sole Justice, and Journey Series of mystery/thriller/suspense novels. He has also written standalone works including Dying Embers, Mojave Sun, and a number of short stories. For the record, there are no superheroes or knights in shining armor in his stories. According to Trust, knights are for fairy tales. His books are gritty and based in the real world with characters who face their frailties while dealing with their roles in the story. The heroes are simply average people doing the best they can. The villains, as real villains often do, look like us. Trust's monsters hide behind the smiling faces that pass us on the street. They look like us, and this makes them more frightening. Today, he writes full-time and lives quietly with his wife and two dogs, Gunner and Charlie. You can find all of his work here on his Amazon Author Page or on his Book Bub Author page, As an independent author, he would greatly appreciate a follow on either or both pages.
