Won't Back Down

Bounty hunter Jack Keller can't outrun his past. Sixth in the series from the author who "writes action as well as anybody in the business" (C. J. Box, #1 New York Times–bestselling author).

Back in rural North Carolina, Keller is trying to build a life beyond bloodshed—a steady job, a relationship with Francis, the son he never knew. But Francis's half-brother Ben still blames Keller for a day of fire and death that once changed everything.

Then Keller steps in to protect a refugee girl, and hell follows. A ruthless trio of sadistic female assassins has come hunting, and they're not just after Keller—they're after Ben, Marie, and Francis.

This time, Keller won't stand alone. But when the bullets start flying, he'll do what he's always done: pick up the gun, take the fight to them, and make damn sure they regret coming after the people he loves.

Fast, brutal, and relentless—perfect for fans of Lee Child and David Baldacci.
