The Virtue of Vengeance

By Brian McDonald

Jimmy Dawson and The Defenders race against time in their pursuit of a serial rapist and human traffickers in this high stakes sequel to The Defenders.

A briskly told thriller sure to engage armchair vigilantes - Kirkus Reviews

Jimmy has just learned the identity of the trucker who killed Katie Miller ten years ago, and kidnapped Hannah Reed a little over a year ago. DNA evidence links the two crimes to the same culprit - Bert Halston. Jimmy sets off on a cross-country journey to try to find Halston and put an end to his brutality against young women. But Jimmy and Clarence encounter an unexpected enemy in their pursuit of Halston.

In the meantime, Camilla Estrada has gone missing at the Arizona-Mexico border. Jimmy and the rest of The Defenders team are in a race against the clock to find Camilla. But this mission has deadly consequences for one of their own. Jimmy makes a promise to find the killer and put a bullet in his head. But is it a promise he can keep?
