Austin White is finally happy with his life. He's got a great job, a nice house, and a beautiful wife and daughter. After a heinous crime leaves him the sole survivor of a house fire, Austin is sent across the southern California desert to the small town of Trona to restart his life. When the man who destroyed his family embarks on a crime spree that seems to follow Austin through the desert, Austin does all he can to save as many families as he can from the same fate. As police chase the vicious criminal across the desert, Austin meets with an enchanting psychologist and together they pick up the pieces of his broken life. James Dallas Williams, the author of The Phoenix and Rules of Engagement, is proud to present his first ever full-length novel, Heartbeat. Based on the previously published collection of Austin White short stories, "Smoke, Sand, and Sagebrush", Heartbeat brings the powerful story of Austin White and Vanessa Walker to a whole new life.
