The Return

By A.J. Rivers

"There's been a shooting in the railyard. Officer down, I repeat, officer down."

Chief of Police Scott Simmons had just solved a high-profile case.
When a drive-by shooting ended his life, leaving Avery Hart riddled with survivor's guilt and PTSD.

Officer Trevor Knapp was once a big-city cop in Seattle, Washington.
He moved to Juniper Springs for peace of mind.
When tragedy hit his department with the death of the chief of police, suspicions were cast his way.

They say, "innocent until proven guilty."
If only it were that simple.
It seems Trevor has a knack for being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Or maybe he is guilty.

His sudden move to the department coincided with a string of murders.

While no one can pin Trevor with hard evidence, there is just enough to cause suspicion.
Soon he runs into Julia, the woman determined to see him behind bars for life.
But they get more than they bargained for when they both become a predator's new targets.

With the help of Avery, the trio goes head-to-head with the culprit.

What would you do if you were under investigation for crimes you didn't commit?
No one will be the same after this...
