Former detective sergeant Jake Pettman has crossed the Atlantic to escape the wreckage of his past—but trouble has a way of finding him. Hiding out in New England, Jake is drawn into a world of killing pits, missing children, mercenaries, corrupt chiefs of police and fringe communities ruled by a charismatic, fanatical pastor. From the town of Blue Falls to the violence-scarred backroads around it, every favour Jake agrees to pulls him deeper into a web of vengeance, organised crime and blood-soaked faith. Fast-paced, visceral and unflinching, the Jake Pettman series blends high-octane action with psychological darkness, following a damaged ex-cop who’s done running and is finally ready to fight back—no badge, no rules.
