Ashamed, they refuse to talk about him or visit, but when a close friend warns Vernon that Caleb has been savagely beaten, he has no choice but to act to protect their only child. The perpetrator of the beating is a local thug from a crime family whose patriarch holds sway over the town, with the police in his pay. Everyone knows they trade in drugs. When Vernon maneuvers to negotiate a deal with the father, he makes a critical error. His mistake unleashes a cycle of violence that escalates to engulf the whole town, taking lives with it, revealing what has been hiding in plain sight in this picturesque rural community and threatening to overtake his son."--Amazon. 650 0 $a Fathers and sons $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Violent offenders $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Families $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Fathers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Drug traffic $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Organized crime $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Corruption $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Small cities $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Australian fiction. 651 0 $a Australia $v Fiction. 655 0 $a Suspense fiction. 655 0 $a Noir fiction. 941 $a 2 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909062523.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20210202015009.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B41C77D4652711EBAC2324F85BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
