Sinopsis

I have a secret. Actually, I have a lot more than one, but I figured I’d go easy on you since we just met.

My real name isn't Ally Justice. That's the name someone back at headquarters made up--I was sure--to have a good laugh at my expense.

I'm not from this small town in Colorado. I'm stuck here until the drug cartel in D.C. takes the price tag off my head. And it's a big number. If I could spend it after I was dead, I'd think about taking the gig myself.

Turns out I'm not really excited about the thought of being dead just yet. So here I am, in this unique--they call it quirky--town of Shotgun, Colorado. Totally out of my element. I don't do nature, or animals, or snow.

Yet here I am, stuck. I'm supposed to lay low, mind my own business. Blend in. But seriously? Did anyone back home do any ReCon on this town? The Bingo hall is like C.I.A. Headquarters where not one stone--I mean town secret--is left unturned. The mayor's widow thinks the sidewalks are her personal roads because, well, they used to be. And her son, the sheriff, is very nice to look at. Not that I'm looking.

I'm settled - sort of. I'm minding my own business.

It's not my fault a dead body turned up in my backyard and suddenly I'm the prime suspect.

The sheriff could be sexy, coming at me with those handcuffs. He has potential. However, I’m not going to jail for a crime I didn’t commit. Guess there’s nothing left for me to do now but solve this mystery myself.

A Debt to Pay

Scott Medbury

They came for his family. Now he’s coming for them. 
Max Havok had the perfect life: a beautiful wife, twin daughters, and a thriving business built from scratch. He was a good man. A family man. But that’s not who he’d always been.  
For twenty years, he kept the door locked on a violent past—a past where he’d learned the only justice that mattered was the kind you took for yourself. 
On an ordinary Wednesday night, that locked door is blown off its hinges. A brutal home invasion destroys his world; a tragedy the police dismiss as a burglary gone wrong. But one detail cuts through the fog of loss: the strange, inconsolable grief of his next-door neighbor, a man who’d barely spoken to them before. 
It doesn't add up, and when Max seeks an answer, he only uncovers more questions. Stonewalled by an investigation that feels like a cover-up, he soon discovers that his search for answers has made him the target of people with power, resources, and a network of killers at their disposal. 
Unfortunately for them, Max Havok has one thing they don’t.  
Nothing left to lose…
