Synopsis

"The most riveting thriller all year!" -John Gilstrap on Hawke's Prey The serene beauty of West Texas's Big Bend National Park is shattered when four hikers are brutally ambushed by a sniper. Only one survives to report the murders. When investigators come up with nothing, they're left wondering if this is a single incident-or the beginning of a rampage. One week later, Texas Ranger Sonny Hawke drives his 3500 Dodge Dually into the park, determined to unearth the truth . . . Before he knows it, he's in the same sniper's crosshairs. The drug and human smuggling cartel known as the Coyotes Rabiosos-Rabid Coyotes-have lured him to remote backcountry, looking for payback for an old grudge. Wounded and stranded in the harsh desert terrain, hunted, and outnumbered, Sonny is about to become the target of an even more dangerous enemy-one whose thirst for revenge could incite an international conflict far beyond the U.S.-Mexican border . . .

I read Sonny Hawke #4 then reversed field and read this immediately. So I knew some of the characters. Like #4, the setting, storytelling and folksy humor was pretty good.

I especially appreciated the s......more
