Hellhound on My Trail

Bounty hunter Jack Keller thought he could leave the chaos behind—he was wrong. Fifth in the gritty thriller series from the author of Devils and Dust.

Back in the desert, Jack Keller is trying to rebuild his life, piece by piece, and heal from the physical and emotional scars of the past. But trouble has a way of finding him.

When Jack steps in to save a stranger from a brutal assault, he learns the man carries a message from the father who abandoned him—a message tied to the buried trauma Jack has carried since the first Gulf War.

But his dying father has secrets of his own, and powerful enemies are determined to keep them hidden. At the center of the storm is a cunning and ruthless heiress to a political dynasty, willing to unleash any weapon to silence Jack—including an ex-government operative with a license to kill.

Hunted and alone, Jack is forced to confront the darkness he’s fought to keep at bay for years. As his demons surface, his rage threatens to destroy everything in its path.

When the dust settles, there will be hell to pay—and no one will escape unscathed.

Praise for J. D. Rhoades

“J. D. Rhoades writes action as well as anybody in the business, and bail bondsman Jack Keller is a winner.” ―C. J. Box, #1 New York Times–bestselling author

“For fans of high-octane thrillers that don’t ignore character development, Rhoades belongs on the same reading list with Stephen Hunter, Lee Child, and Randy Wayne White.” —Booklist
