Courage of the Dragon: Colt Investigations #5

By Marie Tayse

Alex Colt has endured more pain and hardship in his young life than most people could ever imagine. Though he has survived every tragedy thrown his way, the scars left behind continue to haunt him. Seeking refuge from the chaos around him, Alex loses himself in writing, retreating deeper into isolation as he enters his teenage years.

At home, things are no easier. His older brother Billy, unable to understand what Alex is truly going through, only fuels his frustration with constant criticism and judgment. Tormented by classmates at school and feeling abandoned by those who should care the most, Alex reaches his breaking point. Convinced there is nothing left for him in Nebraska, he drops out of school and sets out for Florida, hoping to find a better life far away from the pain he's always known.

But before he can leave, another shocking event shatters what little connection he still has to his hometown, reinforcing his belief that everything tied to it is cursed. With nothing but the clothes on his back, Alex hitchhikes across the country, encountering strangers who will either help him survive or drag him even closer to destruction.

Along the way, Alex discovers something extraordinary about himself. Like his brothers, he possesses a mysterious ability-one that may hold the key not only to his future, but to the destiny he never knew awaited him.
