Mason Sharpe Thrillers Book 13
Book Blurb:
Everyone wants him caught. Someone wants him dead.
On the frozen backroads of upstate New York, Army veteran Mason Sharpe picks up a hitchhiker stranded in the cold.
Minutes later, a sheriff’s deputy pulls them over. Three gunshots ring out, the deputy collapses into the snow, and the hitchhiker disappears into the woods.
Joining local cops on the manhunt, Mason learns the truth: the hitchhiker is Shane Hagan, an escaped federal inmate and fellow special forces veteran.
But when a second encounter erupts into a gunfight in the winter forest, Mason sees what the cops are missing – someone wants Hagan silenced.
Caught in the middle of a deadly web, Mason must choose—trust the system that convicted Hagan or believe a fellow veteran’s desperate story and help him save his family. Make the wrong call, and Mason could end up in prison.
But some bonds are worth any risk. And Mason Sharpe has never been afraid of Hard Time.
His Review:
Shane Hogan has escaped from a secured hospital room and is running loose. Set up by a mafia lord, Shane pleads not guilty to protect his family. A freezing New York winter is nowhere to be escaping to, but Shane is not an ordinary prisoner. He is obviously well trained in military evasion tactics.
Mason Sharpe is another ex-military special operative. Together, they are in constant evasion of the Stefano Crime family. The syndicate is a much closer threat than the New York state police. Their objective is to silence Shane. He has stumbled into their covert drug smuggling method and they would rather kill him and his family than allow the evidence to reach law enforcement.
Logan Ryles keeps this book moving at a brisk pace while building appreciation and admiration for these two ex-special forces operatives. There is no lack of intrigue and excitement as the story progresses. Enjoy! 4.5 stars CE Williams
