Synopsis

Ex-Army Ranger sniper Rafe Hendrix leads the Secret Service detail of President Wyetta Johnson. Rafe and Wyetta became close when they served together in Afghanistan and he saved her life during a recon misadventure that cost her a leg. The President’s wife visits a D.C. private-school classroom, and Hendrix is on sniper duty when a suicide bomber heads toward the First Lady. Hendrix disobeys a direct order, and an unthinkable disaster unfolds. Though Hendrix may have saved the First Lady, he’s blamed for the carnage. And the violence hits harder than he ever could have imagined. Rafe is cast adrift after the incident, and he leaves D.C. for Fort Stockton, Texas. His prospects brighten when he meets veterinarian Melody Sanchez and their romance begins to bloom. But there’s still unfinished business waiting in the wings. Someone from the past is bent on revenge—and he has Rafe firmly in his sights. His plan is as twisted as they come—grisly recreations of some of the most terrible events from the past. And now it’s up to Rafe to learn from history—or be doomed to repeat it.

Goodreads review by Nette

My favorite part is knowing that Rafe Hendrix will be back! Rafe Hendrix is a hero that gave up and sacrificed too much in doing his job. A thing about being too good for the job, Rafe notices certain things and gets a big blow in the process. I do not think he or we saw it coming. But that leads hi......more

Goodreads review by Doug

When a sniper make a perfect shot in an imperfect situation, the action is just beginning. Murders begin which seem random at first, but soon the dots are connected and protagonist Rafe is on the chase. With the support of his ‘wingman’, who just happens to be the President of the United States, he......more
