The Iron Ring - A Lizzy Ballard...

Matty Dalrymple

Lizzy Ballard has a promise to fulfill—but she never anticipated the evil waiting for her at the end of her journey. Will she seize the iron ring, or be left on the field of battle? 
Lizzy Ballard is headed to the Red Rock Country of Arizona on a mission of vengeance—and although she doesn't know it yet, the Vivantem forces are no longer her biggest problem. 
She and her allies have drawn the attention of Theo Viklund, a reclusive billionaire who is determined to enlist them to his own cause—willingly or unwillingly. Even Lizzy's enemies at Vivantem seem to be no match for his reach. With the lines of communication cut, Lizzy struggles to understand exactly who the enemy is. And when the reckoning she promised to deliver brings her face to face with a ruthless killer, she discovers that even her deadly ability may not be enough to save the people she loves. 
THE IRON RING is the heart-stopping third novel in Matty Dalrymple's Lizzy Ballard thriller series—a story about the debts we take on for the people we love, the cost of vengeance, and how far a young woman will go before she no longer recognizes herself. For readers of Stephen King's Firestarter who like a coldly methodical villain and a heroine forced to confront the darkness inside her, this is a contest she can't win without risking everything she has left. Will Lizzy be rewarded for her courage, or punished for it?
