Chris Seely was supposed to be winding things down.
The list. The revenge. The loose ends. The whole insane vigilante detour that began with a terminal diagnosis and somehow kept going long after the diagnosis started looking suspicious. By now, Chris is pretty sure he might actually live — which creates one very annoying problem.
He has to figure out what kind of man he is when he is no longer expecting to die.
But retirement is not exactly cooperating.
Between San Francisco, Manhattan Beach, old grudges, questionable friends, and new trouble that keeps crawling out of the shadows, Chris finds himself pulled back into the kind of mess he should know better than to touch. Some victories leave scars. Some scars lead to revenge. And Chris Seely, despite all evidence that he should stop, is still very bad at walking away.
Justice Spiked is the eighth book in the Chris Seely Vigilante Justice series — a darkly comic crime thriller about revenge, survival, bad decisions, and one man’s increasingly complicated relationship with justice.
I wouldn't recommend going to a barbecue with Chris Seely. You never know what the main course might be. This has to be the best of the series so far, but you have to read them in order to know what's really going on and to pick up on the nuances of Chris's health. Rex Bolt is great at creating believable characters that stay true to form. This story had much more suspense and even showed a weaker side to the main character. I thoroughly enjoyed this series and am saddened to have come to the end of it. For now!
These are fun quick reads that really only make sense if you've read them in order. The main character certainly is a little warped but that's what makes these books different and enjoyable. Try book one and I guarantee you'll read the next.
