Scars of Redemption

By: Norm Lanum

Frank Miller's body is a tally of every punch taken, a living map of a service he'd rather forget. An unlicensed PI with a rumpled trench coat and an antiquated revolver, Frank isn't looking for trouble--but in a decaying Seattle, trouble has a way of finding the men who refuse to look away.

When David Jenkins, a brilliant digital architect and activist, is brutally broken and murdered by corporate mercenaries, Frank is the only one left to demand a reckoning. Jenkins was a 'sliver of defiance' in a world succumbing to structural fatigue and corporate authoritarianism, and his death is a spark that Frank can't allow to be extinguished.

To find justice, Frank must descend into the city's darkest corners, from the shadow of 'The Serpent's Coil' to abandoned warehouses in SoDo. Up against a corporate-led paramilitary conspiracy with infinite resources, a cynical ex-soldier with broken ribs and a service scar shouldn't stand a chance. But Frank Miller knows the price of redemption--and he's finally ready to pay it.

Will one man's defiance be enough to dismantle an empire, or will Seattle's corruption bury him along with the truth?
