Judge. Jury. Executioner. One man is taking the law into his own hands. His targets are the criminals who slipped through the justice system. Dangerous men. Violent men. Depraved, cold-blooded killers. From California to Texas, this relentless avenger hunts down the unpunished and sentences them to death. No trial. No appeals. No mercy. But now he's on Sonny Hawke's turf. A Texas Ranger committed to his job, Hawke will not abide vigilante justice-even if the targets deserve to die. With each murderous act of vengeance, the hunter becomes more like the vermin he's exterminating. The trail of bodies stretches across the Lone Star State to the man's family, the most savage clan deep East Texas has ever seen. And Hawke is the only one who can stop them. . . Reavis Z.
