From the master of US crime fiction comes a thriller about revenge,
justice, family - with one of the most original villains of the year.
Perfect for fans of The Dry by Jane Harper. 'One of today's finest
thriller writers' - DAILY MAIL __________________ NOT EVERYONE
DESERVES A SECOND CHANCE . . . After a tour of Vietnam and a
three-year stint in prison, Jason is back in town and wants to rebuild
his relationship with Gibby, the younger brother he hasn't seen for
years. Determined to make that connection, he coaxes Gibby into a day
at the lake: long hours of sunshine and whisky and older women. But
when the four of them encounter a prison transfer bus on a stretch of
empty road, one of the women taunts the prisoners, causing a riot on
the bus. Soon after, Tyra is savagely murdered. Given his violent
history, suspicion turns first to Jason. Determined to prove his older
brother's innocence, Gibby must avoid the police and dive deep into
his brother's hidden life, a journey that takes him into the darkest
corners of the community. What he discovers is a truth more disturbing
than he could have imagined: not just the identity of the killer and
the reasons for Tyra's murder, but the forces that shaped his brother
in Vietnam, the reason he was framed - and why the most dangerous man
alive wants him back in prison. Set in the American South, The
Unwilling combines crime, suspense and searing glimpses into the human
mind and soul in New York Times bestselling author John Hart's
singular style. __________________ PRAISE FOR JOHN HART: 'A master
