Harry Croft
R trograde Justice: A novel by Max Barrington
When justice goes soft, one man turns hard.
In R trograde Justice, Max Barrington delivers a razor-edged thriller that asks how far a man will go when the law won't go far enough.
Harry Croft, freshly retired and grieving the sudden, senseless death of his wife at the hands of reckless youths, finds no solace in a justice system that favours leniency over consequence. Driven by fury and haunted by loss, Harry takes justice into his own hands-first with the young offenders, then with a far more sinister figure from his past, now hiding in plain sight as a priest.
As investigators circle and suspicion mounts, Harry enlists the help of a shadowy old acquaintance, Nick Oboden, to stage his own death and vanish into a new life abroad. But the past isn't finished with him. Nor is Harry finished with the past.
Explosive, morally complex, and deeply human, R trograde Justice is a journey into the heart of vengeance-and what it takes to come out the other side.
Perfect for fans of Lee Child and John le Carr , Max Barrington's latest is a masterclass in tension, character, and cold-blooded resolve.
