Death Run Hollow (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798233369247)

In the shadowed hollows of Georgia's Blue Ridge Mountains, Lucian Macaw has spent his life learning how to endure. Raised by his Blackfoot Indian father to live off the land, Lucian carried those hard-earned lessons into the Marines-where survival became lethal precision. Now, determined to bury his violent past, he has returned home to raise his family and work his farm in peace.

But the mountains remember blood.

When a reckless local outlaw, JB Hoyt, murders an Italian drug mule, Lucian is dragged into a simmering, decades-old war between the Youngstown Mafia and a ruthless Southern crime syndicate. Hoyt's real goal is not revenge-it's control. By threatening Lucian's land and livelihood, he intends to force the former Marine into taking the reins of a sprawling backwoods criminal empire.

What Hoyt doesn't count on is the collision of unexpected forces: a sharp-witted female marijuana grower with her own secrets, a calculating Mob hitman with divided loyalties, and an undercover agent hunting a human trafficking network buried deep in the Appalachians. As alliances shift and violence spills into the open, Lucian's fragile dream of peace is obliterated.

After the sheriff is murdered, his home burned to the ground, and his eldest daughter abducted, Lucian Macaw makes a final choice. He will stop running from the man he was forged to be. Drawing on his brutal training and intimate knowledge of the mountain hollows, Lucian wages a relentless war to dismantle JB Hoyt's tyrannical grip-no matter the cost.

In these mountains, survival isn't enough. To save his family, Lucian must become the most dangerous thing Death Run Hollow has ever known.
