No Escape
He streamed it live. And asked his audience who should die first.
Opening day of youth baseball in Butler, Florida. The kids take the field. A masked man walks out behind them with a gun in one hand and his phone in the other. Hundreds of strangers are already watching on LiveLyfe when the first child falls. Thousands more watch the second.
He is not nearly finished.
Detective Mallory Black is sober today. Barely. Her partner Mike Cortez is the only person left who trusts her to hold it.
They are chasing an anonymous livestreamer. A comment thread of strangers calling for more. And a teenage girl still picking bullets out of her own leg, who saw something she cannot yet say out loud.
The killer has already started planning his next show.
Across town, Jasper Parish is off-grid and off-duty. He is hunting two targets. The man who murdered his wife and son. And the teenagers who hurt his daughter Jordyn.
Jordyn begs him to stand down.
Jasper has never stood down for anyone.
As the livestream audience grows and the body count rises, Mallory's hunt and Jasper's vengeance are closing on the same endpoint. And the secrets Jasper has been keeping from both the law and his daughter are about to catch him.
When you cross Jasper Parish, there is no escaping his vengeance.

No Escape is the second exciting book in the No Justice series written by authors Sean Platt and David Wright. It's part mystery, paranormal and police procedural. Definitely waiting for the third story.

Just as Good as the first one!
I enjoyed this book just as much as the first one.
And that’s saying something! So many books do not measure up to the first in a series, but not to worry.
Great writing team....can’t wait for #3!

Gutsy
Starts out like a starter pistol. Motion from page 1, this is gritty and brutal and I felt invested in each character. I was afraid to turn the page, but couldn't stop reading.

I enjoyed the story and felt connected to the characters. There are editing issues, but they just made me chuckle and didn’t detract from my enjoyment of the story.

Great read
This book kept me thinking about it even when I put it down. Great connection to the first book in the series while also working as a stand alone read.

Great book. I found some parts particularly hard to read, emotionally speaking.
Quite engaging, thoroughly recommendable.

I really think this is the best Collective Inkwell yet. I meant to read it slowly, to savor it over the course of my lunch breaks for a week or so. No such luck.
It is a fast-paced, high-stakes book that inexplicably tells a slow-burn, heart-wrenching story of what happens when people feel utterly alone in their own pain. All with plenty of realistic cop banter and intense shoot-outs.
I've come to expect awesome from Platt & Wright, but this was something more than I was prepared for.
