      abstract = {Will Robie is the government's most professional,  disciplined, and lethal assassin. He infiltrates the most  hostile countries in the world, defeats our enemies'  advanced security measures, and eliminates threats before  they ever reach our shores. But now, his skills have left  him. Sent overseas on a critical assignment, he fails,  unable to pull the trigger. Absent his talents, Robie is a  man without a mission, and without a purpose. To recover  what he has lost, Robie must confront what he has tried to  forget for over twenty years: his own past. Will Robie  escaped his small Gulf Coast hometown of Cantrell,  Mississippi after high school, severing all personal ties,  and never looked back. Not once. 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.},
