Dead Reckoning (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798994155066)

The Roscoe Benteen Mysteries: Book 1

The system protects killers with money. Roscoe Benteen doesn't work for the system.

She was twenty-three years old. Beaten, strangled, and dumped in the Tennessee River Gorge like she was nothing.

The man who killed her owns half the county. He plays golf with judges. He bankrolls politicians. He's never faced a consequence in his life.

But Roscoe Benteen doesn't care how much money you have, who owes you favors, or what badge protects you. If you murdered her, he's coming for you anyway.

Former Army CID. Expert investigator. A man willing to cross the line when the justice system fails.

Set in the dark backroads of Tennessee, Dead Reckoning is a gritty Southern crime thriller packed with corruption, murder, small-town secrets, and relentless justice.

Perfect for fans of Lee Child, Michael Connelly, Craig Johnson, and hard-boiled detective fiction.

A new detective series begins here.
