The Guilty
After failing a critical assignment overseas, Will Robie must investigate a murder accusation against his father--but to save him, he'll have to face a violent and deadly fallout in this New York Times bestselling thriller.
Will Robie escaped his small Gulf Coast hometown of Cantrell, Mississippi after high school, severing all personal ties, and never looked back. Not until the unimaginable occurs. His father, Dan Robie, has been arrested and charged with murder.
Father and son haven't spoken or seen each other since the day Robie left town. In that time, Dan Robie--a local attorney and pillar of the community--has been elected town judge. Despite this, most of Cantrell is aligned against Dan. His guilt is assumed.
To make matters worse, Dan has refused to do anything to defend himself. When Robie tries to help, his father responds only with anger and defiance. Could Dan really be guilty?
With the equally formidable Jessica Reel at his side, Robie ignores his father's wishes and begins his own desperate investigation into the case. But Robie is now a stranger to his hometown, an outsider, a man who has forsaken his past and his family. His attempts to save his father are met with distrust and skepticism...and violence.
Unlike the missions Robie undertook in the service of his country, where his target was clearly defined, digging into his father's case only reveals more questions. Robie is drawn into the hidden underside of Cantrell, where he must face the unexpected and possibly deadly consequences of the long-ago choices made by father and son. And this time, there may be no escape for either of them.

Superb, as usual.
By wadenof
This book grabs you quick - gets into real life issues and into your heart. It lets you visit places around the globe in great detail while still being easy to read and hard to put down. Human beings can be insane creatures and this book is insanely well written. It features GREAT character development and on some level, maybe more, you will feel like you were right there the entire time.

Will Rosie is an assassin, employed by a clandestine agency of are government. He now faces issues as a direct result of him competing his mission but also unfortunately killing an innocent child. He has returned to the place of his birth in Mississippi. A small town called Cantrell and his father is being held in jail for a murder he didn’t commit. What ensues is a story that only could be described that no one could possibly fathom. An excellent read!!! My highest recommendation.

In the end all so human. So fragile and flawed , damaged ravaged by the incidents of living life.

This one could have been pretty good but it takes a turn so preposterous you’ll be annoyed you bothered to read this one.
