Eighteen months ago, stockbroker Jake Crosby and his daughter Katy narrowly survived a living nightmare at a remote Alabama hunting camp. To save Katy, Jake killed two men—men who were friends and business associates of notorious outlaw and drug-runner Ethan “Moon Pie” Daniels. That night, Moon Pie made a blood promise of revenge. And in Moon Pie’s dark world of violence, such promises are always kept.
Jake Crosby doesn’t regret what he did that night; he knows it was kill or be killed. But he can’t shake the feeling that the horror isn’t over, that Katy and his wife, Morgan, aren’t yet safe—and that retribution is coming. All he knows for sure is that he will do anything—everything—to protect his family. That’s a vow the dangerous Moon Pie will put to the ultimate test on a cold, moonless night deep in the heart of a river swamp.
This riveting follow-up to Bobby Cole’s heart-stopping thriller The Dummy Line deftly explores the perils of revenge…and the profound power of a husband and father’s love.

"The writing isn't great but the story has lots a interesting characters and it many elements are pretty well intertwined and wrapped up successfully. I intend to read the "Dummy Line," the first book and any new books that come out withe character of Jake Crosby."
— Bob (4 out of 5 stars)
" Good story. I thought the characters were a little underdeveloped. quick read, maybe it just needed to be longer. "
— Nancy, 12/7/2013" I liked the first book better. This one seemed a bit disjointed and added characters at opportune moments. The ending wasn't my fave. Bad guys just don't flip like that. "
— Juliemae, 11/7/2013" Two stars is generous. The book is a sequel to The Dummy Line and it reads as if it were a "had to write" book. The implausible plot struggles for cohesion, and the characters are underdeveloped and whiny. "
— Ruth, 8/7/2013" A little slow in the beginning but a good book. "
— Christy, 4/6/2013" fast easy read with a happy ending albeit a little rushed. the author got desperate how to save jake and comes up with two characters out of nowhere. "
— Mark, 2/24/2013" I did not think that this one was as good as his first one "The Dummy Line" but it did have some quirky characters that made me laugh out loud. A good read that you will not be able to put down. "
— Joelyn, 2/23/2013" Love This book!! A must read. But read The Dummy Line first!!!! "
— Kara, 1/15/2013" I enjoyed this a great deal. The fact that much of it takes place in and around Columbus, MS where a great deal of my family lives contributed greatly to my enjoyment. This was a much better effort than Mr. Cole's first book, in my opinion. "
