FINALIST - “Homecoming is one of the year's best thrillers” — BestThrillers.com Book AwardsDon't miss this gripping pulse-pounding tale of danger and suspense, where every moment counts, and every decision could mean life or death. Gary Quesenberry's Homecoming is perfect for fans of Lee Child's Jack Reacher, Steve Hunter's Bob Lee Swagger, and TV's Justified. Federal Air Marshal Case Younger has grown tired of fighting and wants nothing more than to leave the anger fueled days of his past behind. After thwarting a hijacking—the first of its kind since the tragic events of 9/11—and narrowly escaping the relentless glare of the media, Case yearns for peace. He returns to his tranquil hometown in Virginia, seeking solace. However, his hopes for a serene homecoming are shattered when he discovers that his beloved Pikesville is under siege. A ruthless gang has tightened its grip on the town, spreading drugs and fear, while young girls mysteriously vanish. The once peaceful community is now cloaked in a pervasive sense of dread. Driven by a deep sense of duty and justice, Case cannot stand idly by. Determined to reclaim his town, Case embarks on a daring solo mission, a covert operation that plunges him into a web of deceit and danger. As he delves deeper, he uncovers chilling truths that threaten to unravel the very fabric of his hometown. Old rivalries flare up, alliances are tested to their limits, and trust becomes a rare commodity. With each twist and turn, Case races against the clock, driven by the need to protect those he loves and to bring down those who threaten to destroy everything he holds sacred.
