The Cost
of Killing

The people who wanted Derrick Driver dead believe they succeeded. That is their first mistake.

After a powerful conspiracy destroys the life he knew and takes the woman he loved, Derrick disappears into the shadows. What remains is a man with nothing left to lose—and a list of people who believe their wealth and influence place them beyond consequence.

But revenge becomes something more when thirteen-year-old Katrina Shoal is used as bait in an attempt on Derrick’s life. Instead of abandoning her, he becomes her protector, drawing them both into a conflict with enemies who can reach almost anyone, anywhere.

With old allies returning and the line between justice and vengeance disappearing, Derrick must decide how far he is willing to go—and whether killing the guilty will cost him what remains of his humanity.

The Cost of Killing is a stand-alone revenge and conspiracy thriller about survival, chosen family, and the price paid by everyone touched by violence.
